What I'm looking for

I seek a senior communications role where I can craft strategic messaging for technical products, lead cross-functional teams, and drive measurable media and content outcomes in a collaborative, innovation-focused company.

I am a communications and public relations professional with over 15 years of experience turning complex technical subjects into relatable stories for diverse audiences. I have led global PR for cutting-edge technology clients in VFX, AI, immersive design and digital humans, securing coverage in outlets such as WIRED, The Verge, IGN, Fast Company and TechCrunch.

I develop executive messaging frameworks, provide media training to C-suite leaders, and build launch strategies for AI-driven animation platforms and XR creative tools. I coordinate cross-functional efforts with social, marketing and product teams to ensure unified messaging across touchpoints.

I have driven measurable results including a 45% web-traffic increase from SEO and content strategy, contributed to a PR Daily award for Boutique Agency of the Year, managed major events (GDC, SIGGRAPH, CES), and created crisis communication plans for technical product rollouts.
