Biography

As a kid, I once busted my lip – smashing my face into a nearby wooden bench when trying to perform Grease-esque dance moves. Nowadays, I channel my zealousness into pursuing my other (and more rational) interests in advertising and solving brand challenges.

Being obsessed with media, music, and movies my whole life, and with the help of a few serendipities, I have had the opportunity to study about marketing, media, and communications throughout the years. Working on many pitches, campaign briefs, and internships, I have also had the privilege to meet and work alongside many inspiring people who have added much knowledge and meaning to my life. I continue to find myself at the edge of my seat and cannot wait to see where life takes me next!

I love meeting new people and learning something new everyday, so please feel free to say hello or to discuss why Die Hard is the best Christmas movie ever made.
