I am an award-winning senior marketing leader with over 20 years of experience in communications, brand development, and education. My success stems from an innate curiosity about human behavior, deep respect for others, and a drive to tell authentic, engaging narratives that resonate deeply with audiences. I am motivated by personal growth and the success of those I represent, bringing strategic insight, inclusive and creative storytelling, unwavering authenticity, and insightful reflection to everything I work on.
Throughout my career I have managed high-performance marketing teams, executed successful campaigns, projects, and events, and built enduring programs aimed at raising awareness and building brand love.
I am also a consultant herbalist, organic horticulture specialist, plant educator and digger of dirt, committed to sharing my love of native plants and regenerative agriculture with others. My work has helped me be recognized as internationally as an applied cultural ethnobotonist and caretaker of plant medicine. Over my 30 years in this work, I have helped communities of thousands create deeply respectful, loving, and healing relationships with their environment, their bodies, their ancestry, and their spirit, through the teachings of western and Indigenous food and medicine plants.
I am an expressive expander, writer, and speaker with a passion for communication and its significance in our shared ancestry as human beings and its role in inspiring positive global change through genuine connection.
You can find me writing and speaking about marketing communications, sustainability, native plants, herbal remedies & organic gardening in print, at in-person events, and across the internet. I have been published and featured in over 30 prestigious publications, including Martha Stewart Living, Who What Wear, MindBodyGreen, and Yahoo!, as well as being included on panels and as a featured speaker at conferences. My most significant work includes published creative non-fiction and sought-after insights on strategic communications, crisis management, corporate social responsibility, wellness industry trends, diversity initiatives, herbal medicine, aromatherapy, and organic gardening.
