Get To Know Me!
I’m a digital marketer, designer, and storyteller who loves turning ideas into experiences — whether I’m building AI-powered campaigns at Armedia, designing for The Reston Letter, or shaping community stories across multimedia. My background spans creative advertising, reporting, photography, video, audio, and social media, giving me a strong foundation in both strategy and hands-on production. Outside of work, you’ll find me outdoors or on a field or court — swimming, skiing, volleyball, pickleball, or exploring new places.
