Born and raised in a quiet Long Island town, Locust Valley, New York, I am a dedicated marketing professional with a passion for design and creating something out of nothing. After earning my Bachelor of Science in Fine Arts Photography and Marketing from Hofstra University, I have spent the last decade building comprehensive marketing expertise across diverse industries including sports management (rowing), residential and commercial real estate, procurement / property management, cybersecurity, and interior design.

My professional journey has been diverse, enriching, where I’ve established a great community of people I admire and respect. I have experience ranging from retail sales at J.Crew and events photography for The Guardian (a small newspaper in Oyster Bay, New York) to serving as a university teaching assistant for Hofstra's photography classes and working as a lab aide in the darkroom, all of which contributed to my eventual specialization in marketing. I have also successfully maintained my own photography business during my career, specializing in maternity, engagement, wedding, portrait, and branding photography.

In my current role as Marketing Director, I have strategically brought multiple marketing functions in-house, managing photography, website development, content creation, social media management, graphic design, videography, email marketing, and company blog operations. My integrated approach has delivered measurable results: contributing to $100M in additional sales in my first year with a streamlined operations team, organically reaching over 10,000 new viewers, and successfully recruiting 60+ agents through targeted advertising campaigns.

For the past five years, I have made Tacoma, Washington my home, where I live with my husband Joseph and our Hungarian Puli, Ellie. In my personal time, I enjoy curating vintage furniture pieces for our home, practicing hot yoga sculpt, exploring new neighborhoods, and discovering exceptional coffee shops throughout whatever region I call home.
