about

Branding is hard! Especially when you have one million other things on your plate, are in need of a fresh perspective, or maybe you just don't know where to start.

I specialize in early stage companies to develop and implement comprehensive and effective communications solutions. I work with you to ensure your brand message is clear, consistent and compelling at every possible touch point.

I am seasoned brand communications and marketing strategist, with over a decade of experience working across a variety of industries including fashion, entertainment, tech, sports, automotive, non-profit and food & beverage. I have worked as a communications adviser both in-house and on the agency side, at Creative Artists Agency, Rue La La and Dan Klores Communications. My clients have been featured in The New York Times, New York, Wall Street Journal, TODAY, Los Angeles Times, ESPN, Sports Illustrated, House Beautiful, Lonny, Apartment Therapy and many more. My husband, Shantanu, and I recently relocated from Brooklyn to San Francisco, and are attempting to master the art of layering.
