About

A creative strategist who ships.

My creative foundation in photography and design taught me to see stories everywhere—and more importantly, how to share them in ways that genuinely connect and inspire. Since 2012 at Dal Bookstore, I've been the creative force behind content that transforms routine communications into community celebrations, turning student milestones into shared victories and everyday interactions into meaningful connections.

I'm passionate about the strategic, ethical use of AI, championing causes that matter, and constantly shaping new ideas into compelling realities. Whether I'm crafting campaigns that ignite school spirit, developing content that drives genuine engagement, or exploring innovative ways to strengthen community bonds—I believe great content should inspire, connect, and create positive change.

I'm a creative problem-solver passionate about community building — using content to forge connections and drive meaningful growth.
