Translating culture and data into momentum
I'm a data-driven social strategist currently leading community and campaign architecture at Monolith Multimedia Technologies. Over the past decade I've launched subscription and creative technology brands across Chicago and the Tokyo metro area—always combining sharp analytics with human storytelling.
Previous stops include guiding Japan Crate's global subscriber community and advising founders as they scale their first marketing hires. I thrive where scrappy teams need a hands-on leader who can sketch the vision, design the operating system, and roll up sleeves to ship.
