I am at my best when I spend equal time thinking about what the world is and what it could be. As early as 7 years old I would challenge the status quo with provocative questions about religion during Sunday school and gender norms in sports during gym class. Through my time living in midwest America, Spain, England and now New York, I've been incredibly fortunate to transform this curiosity and global perspective into a career in purpose-driven marketing. My outside perspective is often the spark that business leaders and trailblazers need to get their message heard and behavior to change. My most recent work with OBERLAND and e.l.f. Beauty won a Cannes Lion for creative data with a campaign called “So Many Dicks, So Few of Everyone Else” which proved that there are more men named Dick (Richard/Rich or Rick) than entire groups of women on US boards. By using humor to disarm a sensitive topic, we got people talking about board diversity in a meaningful way to bring change. I’m privileged to say I tell stories and discover ideas to make the world a better place.
