About Me

I’ve spent my career in higher education and know how limited time and resources can make it hard to stand out in a competitive landscape. External agencies often struggle with the nuances of this complex environment, while over-reliance on them can leave internal teams underprepared. Traditional professional development rarely offers the tailored solutions needed to address these challenges effectively. I bring the expertise of an agency, grounded in a deep understanding of being an internal member of a higher education marketing team, into an engagement designed to tackle your most pressing challenges. With my approach, you don’t just get the job done—you gain the capabilities to keep succeeding, internally and sustainably.

I’m a marketing professional with over 15 years of experience in higher education, specializing in digital marketing, brand management, and strategic communications. My career began in public relations, where I worked on behalf of higher education clients in an agency setting. There, I developed and executed strategies that elevated institutional brands and drove enrollment.

I later transitioned to leading internal teams in higher education, bringing my agency experience to the table to deliver innovative, results-driven marketing solutions. I’m passionate about helping institutions connect meaningfully with prospective students and stakeholders while building their reputation in an increasingly competitive landscape.
