About

Personally: Lover of all things fitness, sports, food & entertainment. Come at me with all your Game of Thrones references. Professionally: I'm the Senior Account Executive at Slate, where I work with social teams across the world's top sports, media, and entertainment orgs to help them scale their branded content. Because I used Slate in my role at the Cincinnati Reds, I oversee our new sports & media partnerships. I meet with content teams daily to understand their creative challenges and translate them into workflows that actually make their lives easier. My background in sports allows me to relate to the challenges that social teams face on a daily basis, and focus on helping content creators stay on-brand even in high-pressure environments. I bring a unique perspective on how to best equip social teams for success and share my passion for authentic storytelling with everyone I meet 💛 www.slateteams.com

I work with top sports and media brands to elevate their real-time social content. Since joining Slate in 2023, I've closed over $2M in new business with marquee organizations like LaLiga, NASCAR, the NWSL, Foot Locker, and The Athletic.
My career in sports began at UNC Asheville, where I developed a passion for brand consistency on social media. With stops at the San Diego Padres and Cincinnati Reds, I honed my skills in live social coverage & branding before transitioning into a sales role at Slate.
Known for my relentless advocacy for creative teams 🎨, I blend my real-time social media experience with a newfound passion for helping my former counterparts that reinforces authenticity, trust, and my love for people.
