I am a strong, passionate, and analytical leader who is experienced and skilled in brand building, fan engagement and sport marketing. I have expertise in helping Canadian sport organizations succeed and grow through informed, innovative and impactful marketing and communications strategies. I am an excellent communicator and relationship builder who is creative, charismatic and dedicated.

I am a graduate of Carleton University’s Journalism program with combined honours in Political Science where I focussed on media and public relations.
