Strategic storyteller and publicist driving scalable marketing outcomes for Silicon Valley executives and brands. I craft category-defining narratives that have helped companies raise $1.5 billion in new investment

Every great company is actually a social movement.

Bring me a highly-technical founder with a muddy storyline, and I will deliver a movement leader with a sparkling new narrative that dominates headlines, and drives business results. 

I’m a media storyteller, community-builder, and thought partner to high-performing executives, investors and visionary founders. 

Together we activate audiences to tackle humanity’s most pressing challenges with ingenuity, passion and deep expertise.  

Everyone says they’re result-driven, but over the past decade I’ve consistently transformed high-growth technology founders into category leaders, launching more than 80 startups that have earned thousands of media features. 

Collectively my clients have raised more than $1.5 billion from the top venture capital funds and private equity groups. 

Leveraging my extensive network of investors, operators and media, I curate unforgettable events that lead to strategic relationships and unlock opportunities that propel my clients to the head of the line. 

I don’t win awards, but my clients do. 

Whether it's being recognized as a Fast Company Most Innovative Company, Central Banking Magazine’s Finnovator of the Year, or receiving the Core77 Design Sustainability Award, the founders I support stand out among their peers year after year.

After 14 years in the heart of Silicon Valley, I remain fired up about technologies that tackle humanity’s greatest challenges, including food security, global warming, and how the rise of artificial intelligence will impact small business owners, knowledge workers, creative professionals and educators.

When I’m not working you can find me coaching my son’s soccer team, nerding out about all things Arsenal Football Club, or exploring San Francisco’s bounty of mysterious nooks and crannies on two legs. 

I’m a lover of spicy food, black coffee and true crime documentaries. 

Lifetime learner.

I only work with clients I know I can help.

LinkedIn Ghostwriter | Let's talk. I'll turn your words into posts that move the needle for your business.

Ever feel like the car buying process is more of an interrogation than a conversation?

Do you get that eerie feeling that every word you say is being used to corner you into a bad deal?


That’s probably because that’s exactly what’s happening…


There’s a reason why so many buyers just like you dread the lot before they even step foot on it.

Full of worries they’ll drive away with regrets.


Did I buy the right car?
Will this be a reliable car?
Was that a good deal?



I’ll change that for you.



I understand that every buyer is as unique as the car they're looking for.

So forget the one-size-fits-all sales spiel. 

With me, you get a tailored experience—personalized service that listens first and suggests second.

I’ll put you in the right car and walk you through every detail so you know exactly what you're getting—from the hood to the trunk, and every feature in between.


Then when it’s time to talk numbers,

Know that I’m in it for the long game.


Sure, I need to sell a car today.... 

But I also need to sell a car tomorrow, 
And next week, 
And next month, 
And next year. 

So my ONLY goal is to provide you the best experience you’ve EVER had buying a car so you can’t imagine buying from anyone else ever again.

There’s no pressure to do something today,

Just all the information you need to make the right decision for you and your family when the time is right.



And when you do decide it’s time to take your dream car home, your new keys come with all of my continued support.

Whether it's a quick car performance check-in, maintenance question, or just to chat about that upcoming promotion you mentioned last time we talked, 

You can count on me to be there.



Are you in the market for a new car or know someone who is?

Call or text me at 336-697-6297

Let’s get you into just the car you’re looking for.
