Hi. I am a

strategic marketing leader
who loves outreach

01.

Rooted in creativity and purpose, I lead local brand marketing that connects people to something bigger. At UScellular, I translate national strategy into community-first campaigns that spark advocacy, drive engagement, and make our brand feel human.

Through insight-driven plans, disruptive PR moments, and cross-functional collaboration, I craft initiatives that scale but always feel personal. Because when marketing meets meaning, people notice.
