About

DSC_3882-Final.jpg

A data-driven content marketer, I am passionate about creating compelling content that adds real value to my target audience, while also generating visibility and ultimately business. 

Writing snappy copy. Designing strategic social ad campaigns. Crafting and editing engaging blog posts. I've done it all.

For the past several years, I have worked in content marketing at the heart of Silicon Valley, immersed in the area’s tech, startup, VC and legal ecosystems. 

 

I'm currently on the Webex content marketing team at Cisco, a Fortune 500 technology company.
