WIZARDRY

EXPERTISE
15+ years working with ultra-large ($10B) & modestly small ($10MM) brands in over 20 product categories
I'm originally from NJ and got to Texas by way of the University of Texas at Austin, where I earned my MBA at the McCombs School of Business in 2004.
I spent the first 5 years of my career at Pepsico's Frito Lay, learning the craft of data-driven, last-mile-execution, strategic CPG marketing. I followed that with brand-building positions at large organizations that operated like start-ups and start-ups that were driven to be large organizations. I learned how to think like an entrepreneur while managing the complexities of century-old manufacturing and go-to-market system. And how to thrive with smaller budgets and even bigger aspirations.
​
In 2013, I started this company to find my own path to success and have since built a mid-6-figure company that uses scrappiness and talent to truly help other brand leaders succeed. Our team has helped clients with projects that span the marketing playbook and I am proud that all of my clients have become a (many times over) repeat client or has generously provided a recommendation. I am motivated by the fact that I can be a small part of their success. I look forward to being a part of your success, too.
