Me.
Let’s focus on what truly matters—what matters to your business, your team, and most importantly, your customers. What do they value? What inspires them?
I believe the key lies in uncovering these answers and aligning them with solutions that bring their vision to life. It’s about crafting compelling stories, immersive experiences, and striking visuals that spark excitement for the future. Done right, this ignites action, fuels passion, and inspires people to achieve more than they thought possible. This is the essence of strong creative leadership, and it’s what I bring to my teams.
With experience across B2B and B2C markets in both in-house and agency settings, I bring a global perspective to brand and creative strategy. From leading large campaigns and event experiences to driving full-scale rebrands, I specialize in crafting strategies that connect and inspire.
As Senior Director of Creative Services at Coupa Software, I lead a high-performing team dedicated to delivering exceptional creative work that drives measurable impact. At the heart of it all, my passion is simple: to harness creativity, brand strategy, and design to create lasting impact. Goosebumps? That’s just the beginning.

My experience
Inspire. Learn. Grow.
The ability to inspire others, coupled with an unwavering commitment to continuous learning and growth, serves as the cornerstone for unlocking boundless potential and pushing the boundaries of imagination.
"Think Bigger" - Tony Hsieh. Staying on the pulse of design and industry trends is indispensable, but equally crucial is the continual exploration of cutting-edge technologies that can propel us forward into unprecedented realms of innovation and awe.
"Marketing is no longer about the stuff that you make, but about the stories you tell." - Seth Godin. Authentic human connections are vital for a brand's success, and storytelling is the bridge that weaves narratives, resonating with emotions and experiences to deepen the connection with the audience.
"Always deliver more than expected." - Larry Page. Pushing boundaries is only possible through the implementation of robust processes and scalable tools, fostering a dynamic environment that not only meets but consistently exceeds the demands of innovation and efficiency.
