I’m an impact storytelling strategist based in Portland, Maine (unceded territory of the Wabanaki).

I specialize in drawing out the powerful personal narratives at the center of your brand story — and training your team to do the same.

My storytelling work spans 7 years at the national nonprofit StoryCorps leading audience engagement programs across the country, most recently as Creative Operations Director for StoryCorps's award-winning fee-for-service brand studio, StoryCorps Studios. Prior to StoryCorps, I spent 3 years in Buenos Aires teaching ESOL to executives, following 7 years in integrated marketing and brand management for technology startups in Boston, San Francisco, and Washington, DC.

When not working, I’m hiking and paddling the state of Maine, or in hot pursuit of seeing and playing music. A new bandmate recently declared that I was “both the most - and least - type A person” she’d ever met, and I couldn’t help but wonder: Had I ever felt more seen?

The magic is in the details, and I bring relentless detail orientation to getting the magic-making done right, but always with a collaborative style that keeps collective inspiration high and moving toward the mission. I suspect my beloved StoryCorps colleagues (who know I love a montage) would tell you the same (#sniffle).

So. Let’s make some magic, shall we?
