MY HIGHLIGHTS

I make social campaigns that hit culture and move numbers. My work blends storytelling, creativity, and data to bring families together through play, laughter, and shared moments.
 

With over five years in social and content marketing, I’ve led audience-first campaigns across games, wellness, alcohol, plush toys, and pet care. At Relatable (What Do You Meme?), I helped grow the brand’s social presence by 7M+ followers in three years, and in my first year at Exploding Kittens, I’ve driven 600M+ organic views by producing in-house social content built to connect families through humor and gameplay, delivering measurable growth and turning casual audiences into loyal communities.
 

At the heart of my work is understanding what makes people smile, share, and engage, crafting strategies that connect emotionally and perform commercially.

IN-HOUSE UGC 

Across four years of leading in-house content teams, I’ve produced over 1 billion organic views for brands like Exploding Kittens and Relatable (What Do You Meme?), proving that social-first storytelling can drive massive reach without a single paid boost.
 

I focus on creating content that feels native, authentic, and worth sharing, bringing the same creative energy to every piece, whether it’s a six-second hook or a sixty-second story.

ENTRE-PURR-NEUR ðŸ’…

In 2019, my foray into marketing began with the launch of my Queer Culture drinking game on TikTok. Recognizing the power of entertaining content to foster audience connections and drive sales, I transitioned into the marketing realm by joining What Do You Meme. Here, I've crafted and licensed my latest game, slated for nationwide release this Pride Month.
