What I'm looking for

I seek leadership roles that blend product strategy, creative storytelling, and AI-driven growth in mission-driven, fast-moving teams.

I am a visionary product and communications leader with 18+ years shaping ventures at the intersection of media, technology, and creativity. I bridge creative narratives with data, AI, and performance-driven frameworks to deliver measurable impact.

I have led end-to-end product lifecycles, from concept to market launch, building media-tech platforms and story-driven IP while scaling cross-functional teams and hiring top talent. I launched and ran a consumer app startup, built investor-ready financial models, and executed GTM strategies.

My strengths include strategic storytelling and media relations, enterprise partnerships, and integrated marketing campaigns that drove adoption and visibility. I have delivered measurable operational improvements through structured production pipelines, partner SLAs, and data-driven growth experiments.

I bring hands-on tech and AI fluency, experience with Agile product delivery, and a history of mentoring founders and advising on narrative, positioning, and go-to-market alignment. I seek roles where creativity, product strategy, and data-driven decision-making converge to build impactful user experiences.
