Ran a client-facing production agency for 10+ years while holding embedded roles inside enterprise and media organizations — which means the client relationships, the vendor negotiations, and the cross-team liaison work are all things done under real commercial pressure, not just in service of someone else's budget. Journalism-trained and broadcast-experienced, with hands-on production depth that covers writing, directing, voiceover, and live-stream infrastructure — the kind of range that lets a team be led with authority rather than managed from a distance. Brings both the strategic scope to own a digital media campaign end-to-end and the technical fluency to stay credible with the people executing it.
