Two decades behind brands you've heard of — now building a small school in Aledo, a local newsletter, and quiet consulting work for founders I believe in.
What I Do
Ventures
Three projects, one through-line: small things made with care for the people they're for.
A small, relationship-driven elementary microschool in Aledo, Texas. Strong academics, intentional childhood, and a place where every child is known.

About
My career started in New York — working with brands in fashion, hospitality, and the arts. After moving to Fort Worth, I spent time at the Kimbell Art Museum, where I found my way into the arts and nonprofit world, before joining agencies in Dallas and Fort Worth as a brand manager. That early nonprofit work stayed with me — and it's why I've made volunteering in the nonprofit world a steady part of my life ever since.
Today I'm focused on a new chapter: founding The Trailhead School and consulting selectively with founders whose work I genuinely believe in. My three children are the reason I think hard about what's worth building — and what isn't.
I care about doing the work well, communicating clearly, and never letting the small details slip.
