About me

At age eight in my childhood Michigan home, my mother’s friend asked me to go into her guest room and bring her a “cotton swab.” Always eager to please I promptly jumped on the task, when upon entering the room was flummoxed by no trace of said swab. I came back, defeated and empty-handed, “I don’t see any cotton swabs, the only thing I could find were Q-tips.” Insert teaching moment, and this seemingly trivial moment began my lifelong fascination and appreciation for the art and impact of brands. Thanks, Deb.

As Group Director of Business Development for Team One, a Publicis Groupe agency devoted to helping premium brands improve pricing power and protect margins, I have the unique privilege of turning a childhood fascination into a daily passion project.

With a 15+ year track record of building and enhancing long-term relationships rooted in trust, driving sustained results is at the core of my approach.

Core attributes: Authenticity, Relationship Management, Talent Development, Luxury Experience Curation, Collaboration, Navigating Challenges, Oenophile and Certified Wine Specialist.
