About Me

I moved to the Pacific Northwest close to 20 years ago to attend the University of Oregon to study Journalism (go Ducks!).  Since then I've fallen in love with the wild and beautiful landscape of Oregon, with its incredible coastline  and rugged mountains only short distances away. Since graduating, I've had amazing opportunities to support small and large teams with my passion for storytelling and love of bringing big ideas to life. 

With a diverse background in operations, media and employee communications, I joined Nike in 2011 and since then, I've led and supported  employee communications, global editorial processes, multiple executives with communications platforms and strategies, external speaking engagements, speech writing, and consumer product media launches. Throughout my career I've built a reputation for tackling the complicated projects - from innovative digital stories to global business and industry narratives - I love getting curious to imagine creative solutions.  

Today, I live in the charming hills of Oregon wine country with my husband, daughter and our two dogs (only our senior dog is pictured at left). We love our community - from enjoying our local restaurants, markets, and breweries - to getting into the outdoors with hiking trails, kayaking and camping.
