I’ve spent 14+ years helping founders, brands, and creators unlock growth at the intersection of culture, talent, and strategy. My career has spanned entertainment, tech and media—building systems, scaling teams, and designing campaigns that turn influence into revenue and culture into capital.
Along the way, I’ve been able to:
Scale global teams across five continents, leading operations that delivered 120,000+ hours of uninterrupted live broadcasting across brands.
Manage 2,500+ influencers and on-camera talent—before live streaming was an industry standard—creating scalable creator operations.
Drive 6X revenue growth in one year by aligning content, monetization, and talent strategy at a global startup bridging tech, entertainment, and live gaming.
Build systems that last, from international market-entry strategies for startups to infrastructure roadmaps for local workforce expansion at venture-backed organizations.
Today, I bring that same strategy-first approach to founders, startups, and organizations that want to scale with intention—without losing culture, story, or vision.
One thing I’ve learned: whether talent is clinical, executive, influencer, or product/tech-based—people are the throughline. When you understand what drives people, you can solve company problems at the root, because your greatest asset will always be your people.

“I might not know how to code, but I can guarantee you that I know how to improve your coding via the humans that touch those systems.”

INFLUENCER ROI THAT'S MISSING
You’ve tried influencer or partnership campaigns, but they’re inconsistent, underperforming, or not bringing real ROI.
TEAMS WITHOUT DIRECTION
Your talent, execs, or front-facing teams lack clear structure—leading to turnover, misalignment, or stalled growth.
STORY NOT LANDING WHERE IT MATTERS
Your pitch, brand story, or on-camera presence isn’t resonating with investors, clients, or partners—costing you opportunities.
SCALING WITHOUT SYSTEMS
You’re leaving money on the table because your pitch, brand story, or on-camera presence isn’t connecting with clients, investors, or audiences.
Don’t worry—you don’t have to figure it out alone. I can help!
