I’ve always been drawn to stories.
As a kid, reading was my favorite escape. At some point I started writing my own, first short stories, then essays, then eventually the kind of work that sits somewhere between journalism, marketing, and media.
Today I work at the intersection of content, ideas, and people.
I currently lead executive communications and podcast production at IBM, where I help translate complex technology into narratives that people actually want to read, watch, or listen to. My work spans ghostwriting thought leadership, producing podcasts, scripting video, and shaping social media for company leadership.
Before that, I worked across a mix of tech and media companies, including Tesla, Uber, eBay, DataStax, and Skillz, helping build content programs for products, brands, and executives.
Along the way I’ve written articles, launched podcasts, produced videos, built social media voices, and helped leaders articulate the ideas behind their companies.
What I care most about is the craft of communication: taking complicated ideas and turning them into stories that feel clear, human, and worth paying attention to.
Outside of work I’m usually reading, taking photos, listening to podcasts, doing yoga, or taking nature walks with my Aussie - often with a Coke Zero in hand.
