MY RESUME
I’ve landed some of the most competitive jobs in the industry by setting myself apart at every step.
I earned certifications, coached clients and taught group fitness while working as a full-time fitness editor. I pursued a second master’s when my work evolved from focusing on the body to understanding the mind. I’ve worked across industries and functions. I’ve been media trained, taken people-leadership courses and am usually deep into three books at once. All to separate myself from the pack.
This approach has shaped me into a dynamic strategic-creative hybrid who’s just as comfortable presenting to a CEO, hosting a podcast, leading panels, or going live on national TV as I am behind the scenes directing shoots with elite athletes and A-listers. I know when to step forward — and when to step back and let my team shine.
