About

I started out writing code and ended up writing brand strategy, and the path between explains how I think. I’m a marketer with a Computer Engineering degree and a MICA MBA. I’ve built a content function from scratch at a B2B SaaS startup, run corporate communications for an investment bank, and built the go-to-market case for a new FMCG product, from field research to pricing. The thread through all of it is research: I want to understand the person on the other end before I write a word. The engineering side shows up in how I work, comfortable with numbers, quick to build, and deep into how AI is reshaping the craft. Brand, content, product marketing, communications. Strategic thinking, hands-on execution. Always happy to talk.
