About

With 15+ years spanning brand events, creative operations, and program management, I specialize in building systems that make creative work flow. Through MIRJ Creative, I consult with marketing agencies and brand-side teams on AI workflow design, helping them cut execution overhead and amplify output without burning out their people.

My background at Capital One and MAC Cosmetics gave me a deep foundation in brand activations, experiential marketing, and stakeholder engagement. I bring that operational fluency into every engagement, whether I'm auditing an agency's content pipeline, designing an AI-powered campaign workflow, or coaching a team through a creative reset.

"I walked into this process overwhelmed, creatively disconnected, and struggling to organize my next chapter. I left with structure, direction, and a clearer understanding of how I want to build my life and career moving forward."
