Marketing is equal parts strategy and execution, and I thrive at both. With 18 years of experience spanning Fortune 100, startups, and my own business, I’ve built brands, accelerated demand, and driven measurable revenue growth.
As Founder of Guardian Saints, I built a six-figure business from the ground up, achieving revenue-positive results in the first quarter of operations—proving that great marketing isn’t just theory, it’s execution. At Texas Instruments, I led the award-winning Engineering Change campaign, driving a 116% increase in student engagement while reducing costs by 60%. Working with startups like ACHNET and Theatro, I’ve tackled the fast-paced world of SaaS and AI-powered marketing, helping companies shorten sales cycles and improve customer acquisition.
I thrive in environments where I can solve complex marketing challenges, connect brands with the right audiences, and build scalable systems that drive results. Whether working with global enterprises or early-stage startups, I bring an entrepreneurial mindset, a data-driven approach, and a relentless drive to win.

Beyond the Resume
Outside of my career, I’m a passionate foodie who loves to cook and explore new flavors. I love to travel and have explored countries all over the world, including Australia, Monaco, Indonesia, Canada, Mexico, China, Singapore, Germany, France, India, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates. These experiences have broadened my perspective and shaped a global lens that I bring to both life and work.
I live in Texas with my husband and two teenage children and prioritize staying active and healthy, making fitness a part of my daily routine.
At 17, I joined the U.S. Navy to see the world and earn money for college. Serving both before and after 9/11 gave me a unique perspective on leadership, responsibility, and resilience. Experiencing the shift from peacetime to wartime service was a defining chapter in my life—one that reinforced my ability to adapt, lead through uncertainty, and persevere under pressure.
