Many brands struggle with presenting their products effectively online, which leads to decreased customer engagement and sales. I help brands and small businesses show off their products in a way that speaks directly to their ideal customer and converts more browsers into buyers. First, we get clear on your goals and brand voice. Next, we’ll nail down the details of your shoot - colors, props, ingredients, a shot list - so I can do my best to capture your vision. Once I get final approval from you, then I'll get to work creating your content. As a photographer with over 5 years of experience creating content for brands like Everclear, iHerb, and NOW Foods, I'll help guide you through the messy stages of clarifying your vision, developing a cohesive visual story, and creating images that you and your customers love. My focus includes: *Visual strategy *Shot list creation *Prop selection *Product photography *Collateral content, such as stop-motion video or short-form video *Photo retouching *Final image delivery, pre-formatted for print, web, or social Next step is to schedule a 20 minute Discovery Call to get a more specific scope of work so I can followup with a detailed proposal, timeline and project costs.

I turn scaling brands' audiences into obsessed communities who buy, come back, and recommend you to their friends. I'm a social media & brand strategist with over a decade of experience helping DTC and B2C brands go from crowd to community to conversions. What that's looked like recently: - Helped an influencer and entrepreneur client grow to consistently hit 10 to 12 million monthly views, up 16% month over month, while her brand account regularly drove full product sellouts. - Increased returning member rate by 10% for a fitness studio client through targeted reactivation campaigns, on top of a full rebrand, website, and SEO overhaul. Where I can help: - Brand identity and positioning, so your content has a point of view instead of just a posting schedule Organic social media management across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Threads - PR and community building strategy that turns followers into people who actually show up - Influencer and UGC program management, from sourcing and contracting through campaign reporting - Email and SMS marketing - Personal branding for founders and executives who want a real presence, not just a logo account I move fast, think several steps ahead, and treat your brand's growth like it's my own business. If you want senior level strategy and hands on execution instead of a content calendar and a hope, let's talk about what you're building.

Welcome! If you're looking for clarity, a stronger strategy, and increased digital visibility, you're in the right place. I’m a strategic communications consultant helping executive coaches, mission-driven organizations, and leaders build effective and sustainable marketing systems with clarity. I specialize in LinkedIn, omni-channel social media strategy, designing branded collateral, and data-informed communications planning, supporting nonprofits, social impact teams, and purpose-driven brands that want to grow their reach and engagement with intention. Most of my clients come to me when they have content (or ideas) but need a stronger strategy that connects the dots between their goals, messaging, and execution. What Sets Me Apart: 📝 Strategic + Collaborative Approach: No cookie-cutter plans here! I work alongside clients to build and refine strategies that fit their goals, capacity, and audience through ongoing support or one-and-done intensives. 📈 Built to Evolve: I focus on creating and implementing systems rather than one-off tactics that burn out after a few weeks. I utilize tools like Sprout Social, Google Analytics, and Databoxtest to measure and improve content over time. 🧩 Clear Fit, Better Results: Whether we work on an on-time project or a long-term contract, I build strong, sustainable foundations with my clients.
