Community has shaped the way I think about marketing from the beginning. The strongest brands don’t simply promote themselves—they participate, listen, build relationships, and contribute to the places and people around them.

I’m especially interested in work connected to Seattle and the Pacific Northwest: local businesses, artists, makers, food and beverage, cultural spaces, sustainability, neighborhood stories, and organizations doing meaningful work in their communities.

Helping local ideas grow

I help local businesses and organizations clarify their stories, reach the right people, build useful partnerships, and create marketing that feels connected to the community rather than imposed on it.

That can include strategy, messaging, campaigns, launches, community outreach, partnerships, events, content, creative direction, and practical guidance for internal teams.

Arts, culture, and gathering places

My career began in community relations, creating partnerships and programs that brought books, schools, families, and neighborhoods together. I later built work around artists, filmmakers, creative venues, hospitality brands, and independent businesses. Those experiences taught me that marketing can create connection as well as commerce.

Pacific Northwest perspective

The Pacific Northwest has a distinctive creative and civic character. I’m drawn to projects that value place, originality, collaboration, sustainability, and a strong relationship with their audience.

Have a local idea or collaboration in mind?

If you’re building something for Seattle or the wider Pacific Northwest—especially in local business, arts, culture, food, sustainability, or community—I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
