About

WIP Marketer | Former Founder | Writer | AI Tinkerer I've built my career at the intersection of marketing, storytelling, and technology, driven by curiosity and a bias for action. From VC-backed startups to Fortune 50 giants, and even my own (failed) venture, I've seen what scales, what stalls, and what endures. Each chapter has sharpened my view on how to build brands, drive impact, and stay relevant in a world of short attention spans and constant reinvention. Before marketing, I spent years in the performing arts. Acting, directing, and crafting narratives across formats. That lens still shapes how I think about influence, resonance, and what moves people. At Accel, I lead the full-stack marketing charter: brand, content, platforms, IPs and portfolio impact. I work closely with our founders to refine their story, elevate their marketing, and build engines for sustainable growth.
