By Day: Customer-first product marketer with deep expertise in retail media, social advertising, and programmatic platforms. Whether navigating global markets, cross-functional teams, or complex partner ecosystems, I operate as a strategic Swiss Army knife: led by clarity, powered by scalability. By Always: An ex-Third Culture Kid (ask me about high school in Moscow) still acclimating to everyday life in the United States. A professional #NotSadDeskLuncher (I started the viral blog SadDeskLunch.com). And because we’re being honest here: I’m a cat person.

Lifelong news & media consumer turned digital media professional. Through college I consulted for a variety of agencies, media organizations and brands, and I was hired full time at Gawker Media just before graduation. 8 years later, I left as a VP who contributed growth from 30 full time employees to more than 300 and increased revenue over 400%. As Chief Revenue Officer and Publisher of Futurism.com, we developed and launched the Gravity Blanket on Kickstarter, starting a global craze for weighted blankets and creating an estimated $200m blanket market. We grew the team from 8 to 30 and helped drive three separate cash acquisitions. Currently working with Fragment Media as Publisher of Passionfruit, a creator economy newsletter and community built for creators, not economists. My expertise is in building profitable new teams and departments, managing/motivating creative-minded individuals to tell great stories, throwing over the top events for clients & customers, and working with founders in media and technology to make better internet.
