My interests in a wide range of topics and passion for helping people have led me to consulting, where I can weave together my diverse experiences to produce comprehensive, cohesive and affordable solutions for small businesses, startups and nonprofits.
From digging into data to editing copy, developing SEO strategies to performing user research, I have a diverse range of skills. I’m resourceful, efficient and a bit of a perfectionist. I’m passionate about social and environmental justice and seek to put my skills toward supporting clients who are building a better world.
I’ve lived in seven cities on four continents since graduating college—I’ve lived in the jungle and the mountains, in places with a few hundred to a few million people. I’ve run an ecomm business, started a nonprofit, and even been a DJ at a radio station.
I’ve been living in Seattle since 2014 and call the Pacific Northwest home.
