An epicurean brand champion with proven experience building highly successful brands in the specialty food and wine space. I offer over 20 years of marketing experience honed in a diverse range of environments, from corporate CPG to smaller, family-owned operations. I analyze brands to assess what’s working and what isn’t. I develop strategic plans to optimize them for success, and manage all the tactical details involved with executing those plans. I am passionate about crafting brand stories that compel real consumer engagement, delivering both brand loyalty and sustained growth.
