Buyer

founder at Brand Pollinators

I help purpose-driven entrepreneurs grow businesses. With an eye on sustainable growth, I uncover operational inefficiencies, develop innovative marketing solutions, and instill a thoughtful leadership mindset. Some also say that I have magical powers when it comes to organizing and planning. 

I am constantly learning and making connections: I’ve started businesses from scratch; won speaking competitions; and mentored startup founders. My broad range of experiences feeds my ability to develop innovative solutions.

Oh, and I adore food--growing it, cooking it, eating it, and sharing it with others (I essentially baked my way through business school). When I’m not at my computer or in my kitchen you will find me out on a trail!

My purpose in life is to support, connect, and amplify organizations that are doing good in the world. Let's build something great together!
