Empathy-led Content Strategy Expert Who Brings a Creative Spark Into Technical Systems and Structures

Woman with pale skin and curly brown hair wearing a turquoise dress.

Oh hello! 

I’m an effervescent communications specialist with over 10 years of experience transforming internal processes and boosting brand awareness at the University of Washington and various arts organizations in Seattle. 

My skills include developing creative content strategies and managing complex projects to deliver exceptional results. My theatre experience has given me a strong background in creative problem-solving, pivoting easily between projects, and delivering engaging storytelling. 

I am passionate about the local arts community and taking part in projects that emphasize collaboration and risk-taking as well as enhancing equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility.
