About

I believe the most enduring brands are built on human storytelling. My distinction as an executive leader is leading at the intersection of brand strategy and technology innovation through modern design and communications. It’s about taking complex ideas and translating them into resonant, emotional narratives that move teams and culture forward. My Current Mission at Google As the Vice President of Global Brand & Creative, I lead our worldwide Brand Story and Creative vision. My focus is on unifying the power of our products with purpose-driven brand storytelling, creating a cohesive, impactful narrative across every platform and experience. Building Brands That Reflect Culture Prior to joining Google, I spent 16 years at Nike, where I was the VP of Global Brand Defining Creative and Brand Innovation. This tenure allowed me to lead the vision and creative development for some of the industry's most definitive campaigns and platforms, including: • You Can’t Stop Sport • The Football Verse • Just Do It – Dream Crazy • Nike’s 50th Anniversary My background spans product, brand, and digital experience, including setting the vision for Nike By You and designing signature collections with legends like Serena Williams, Roger Federer, Virgil Abloh, LeBron James, and Kobe Bryant. My foundation as an Industrial Designer—starting at Ford Motor Company and working with Delta, Dell, and P&G—gives me a deep understanding of the concept-to-consumer creative offense. My passion for building things that matter extends beyond my role, as I currently serve as a Board Trustee at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI). Let’s connect and create.
