My Background

If there’s one thing I’ve always known, it’s that change is constant, so I got comfortable with it early. I started my career in social media, riding the wave of digital transformation from its earliest stages.

Over the past decade (and then some), I worked my way through nearly every corner of digital marketing, learning the ins and outs of how brands show up and scale online.

But along the way, I realized that social media and paid ads weren’t enough. What truly excited me was pushing boundaries, leaning into cultural and consumer behavior shifts, platform evolution and emerging technologies.

That curiosity for what’s next became my edge, leading me to where I am today: SVP, Innovation Strategy at Publicis Media.
