I help consumer brands turn product launches and campaign ideas into strategic, platform-native social content. With 6+ years of experience producing content and campaigns for brands including Kendra Scott, Chubbies, Poppi, Native Pet and Kenny Flowers, I can lead the entire process from initial concept through final delivery. My experience spans creative strategy, campaign development, photo and video production, shoot planning, social content and post-production. In my first 90 days producing Instagram content for Kendra Scott, my work contributed to more than 100 million views and 500,000 interactions. I have also managed crews of 5–25, production budgets ranging from $5K–$100K and high-volume calendars spanning e-commerce, editorial, campaign and organic social content. I can support your brand with: • Social content strategy and campaign concepts • Product launch and promotional content plans • Creative briefs, moodboards and shot lists • Photo and video production • Casting, locations, crew and vendor coordination • Production schedules, budgets and deliverables • Short-form video concepts, scripts and editing • Instagram, TikTok and Stories content planning • Post-production management and creative feedback • Content calendars and creative workflow development I specialize in fashion, beauty, jewelry, apparel, food, beverage and lifestyle brands, particularly teams that need senior-level creative and production support without hiring a full-time employee or large agency. Whether you need a complete launch content plan, a producer to bring an existing campaign to life or ongoing fractional support for your social team, I can build the process and content needed to move the work forward.
