Adaptable, Ethical, Positive, High EQ, Team Player, Collaborator, Negotiator, Problem Solver.

Life Experience

Born & raised in Los Angeles, my family inspired a love of electronics, computers, video games, music, DJing and hosting parties at our home.

In college I took every internship opportunity to learn how to manage a Multimedia Dot-Com, Venture Finance, Marketing Agency, Event Production, Nightclub, Festival, Record Label, Movie and TV Studio. In 1999, I taught myself how to code and launched a digital intertainment™ streaming guide for first generation smart phones.

I moonlighted as VIP Security and networked with Musicians, DJs, Record Labels, Music Venue Owners and Brand reps. I went from Artist promotion street team, then hosting brand launch parties at bars & nightclubs, to producing music festivals. I became a public advocate in support of the Nightlife Industry in 2014.

Passionate Marketing Expert

For the past 22 years, I have helped artists, start-ups and businesses market their brands. My unique process is designed to enhance branding, strategize digital and guerilla marketing tactics, upgrade ecommerce sales tools, and explore Web3 options.

Analytical Approach

My research helps identify industry trends, emerging technologies, opportunities, and gaps. My strategic project plan includes a cost analysis of quality services that can support growth, limit turnover, and increase profit using a mix of digital advertising, ecommerce and event marketing.

Wellness Transformation Legacy

Due to COVID-19, I expanded my research in emerging technologies and developed alternative-lifestyle consumer products like immunity support, cognitive enhancers, anti-anxiety, pain relief and wellness supplements - to help people live happier and healthier lives. I promote ALT brands online and at cool events.

It takes one hour of preparation for each minute of presentation time.

I love to be a speaker to share actionable, engaging, and unforgettable tips with audiences. I love to listen and share ways I can help design a workshop, speech, keynote, and/or session that's perfect for any audience.
