Summary
15+ Years in Campaigns & Causes | 12+ Years Published Writing |

I've led teams of 12 in marketing feature films, appeared on national

helped launch what was once the fastest-growing site in history and
spoke at the White House twice. I'm addicted to legacy, and here to
get stuff done. Don't take my word for it! See my recommendations.
