I'm no Leonardo.

No, not the ninja turtle.
And not DiCaprio.
I'm talking about DaVinci.

But like him, I see the world as one big web of connected ideas.

I've spent the last decade helping tech founders and brands tell stories that make complex ideas feel simple. Whether I'm writing for a supply-chain SaaS company or ghostwriting for a startup founder, my goal is always the same: to make people care.

At Longbow Advantage, I serve as lead storyteller and content strategist, turning technical concepts into narratives that build trust and drive results. I've helped grow engagement by 50%, lift email CTR, and shape a consistent voice across campaigns, leadership content, and customer stories.

Before tech, I led creative and communications teams in the nonprofit world, producing live and digital experiences that connected people through story, music, and media. Those years taught me how to lead with empathy, think under pressure, and find meaning in the details.

I'm endlessly curious.
I love the Oxford comma.
And I still believe that creativity isn't just about making things, it's about seeing unique connections.

Along this journey, I have had the privilege of collaborating with remarkable clients such as HP, Dell, Mitsubishi, VMware, Conceptonics, APHotels, and many more, spanning diverse industries.

In recent years, I have focused my artistic journey on technological and lifestyle brands, melding the worlds of visual communication and social media. But my creative aspirations don't stop there. I have also honed my skills in website design, allowing me to craft tailored solutions that perfectly address my clients' needs.

As a Creative Director, I am adept at managing intricate timelines, prioritizing tasks, and orchestrating multidisciplinary teams. Having stood on both sides of the hiring process, I understand that the perfect team is not just a collection of individual talents but a harmonious fusion driven by camaraderie. Everything else can be learned with time, but a great team spirit is the essential foundation.

So, join me on this adventure where art meets technology, where innovation finds its voice, and where together, we can create extraordinary experiences that captivate hearts and minds.

Let's expand our imagination through design with the help of AI.
