I’m a creative and detail-oriented event and account coordinator passionate about storytelling, consumer education, and brand engagement. Whether through seamless event execution, compelling content, or influencer marketing, I love turning ideas into impactful experiences. I specialize in content creation—press materials, newsletters, website copy, and marketing collateral—while managing high-profile events with 100-2000 attendees, from logistics to speaker coordination. From corporate conferences to leadership summits, I ensure every detail enhances a brand’s presence and audience connection. With a Bachelor’s degree in Public Relations and a minor in Business Administration from Oswego State, I thrive at the intersection of strategy and creativity. As I explore opportunities in event coordination, PR, and influencer marketing—especially in lifestyle, hospitality, and luxury sectors—I’m eager to bring fresh ideas and dynamic execution to a team that values innovation and engagement. Let’s connect and create something unforgettable!

12 years building world-class talent functions in venture-backed tech Led multiple large, high-performing recruiting teams (25+ staff) 1-time founder- raised £1.8m to rethink hiring software from first principles Like environments where hiring hard-to-engage talent defines the trajectory of a company. I believe outlier companies have to operate like a startup for as long as possible.
