I have a strong background in supporting people and culture initiatives, change management, and operational communications in fast-paced environments.

Currently, I serve as the Global Communications Manager at Mobilisights, where I drive internal and external communications strategies to support company growth and enhance brand awareness. My role involves developing data-driven campaigns, managing public relations, and leading conference planning to showcase our brand.
