Creative, people-focused, and detail-obsessed, I build experiences that connect employees to purpose, process, and pride. From crafting interactive learning programs to leading culture initiatives, I turn big ideas into programs people actually enjoy. Known for blending storytelling, strategy, and heart to create training, communication, and engagement moments that make work feel like a community—not just a job.
