Strategy and brand story creation are my passions. I also love to create the architecture and the structure behind the brand to ensure the implementation has the most impact, best aligns with the vision for the brand and eloquently communicates to the target market. I also enjoy copywriting.

I have been passionate about marketing since a young age and particularly enjoy strategising, creative direction and social media. Understanding the client’s target market well enough to speak their language and win them over is a favourite too.

I live in West Michigan, United States, with my husband Paul and many days you’ll find me on my bike or walking near Lake Michigan. I love to read, cross-stitch and enjoy a great movie.
