About

My career in a nutshell: I used to act in commercials, and now I write them.

I’m an advertising copywriter, a screendance director and choreographer, and an actor/dancer/arts educator.

If collaboration is a skill, then I’ve practiced til it’s perfect. All those reps mean I’m good at reading a room, setting a positive *vibe*, and working to bring out the best in every person on a team. I am relentless (in a good way) about the process of weaving together multiple ideas to create the best possible, super-creative outcome.

I am passionate about equitable media representation and telling diverse stories. It’s a big part of the reason I wanted to make ads in the first place.

All that, plus I’m handy around the house.
