I’m a publisher, entrepreneur and community builder passionate about creating meaningful experiences across media, hospitality, and lifestyle.

As Publisher of IS Luxury Magazine, I lead one of the region’s premier platforms for luxury real estate and lifestyle storytelling, connecting discerning audiences with the people, properties, and brands shaping modern luxury living in Las Vegas and the Southern California coast.

Beyond publishing, I’ve built ventures that reflect my belief in design, wellness, and discovery:

* Owner of LASHiX Med Spa — where beauty and self-care meet precision and artistry, specializing in lash extensions, brow lamination and skincare.

* Co-owner of Discover IT Yourself — a bespoke outdoor adventure brand in Las Vegas offering curated experiences that reconnect people with nature and exploration.

* Partnering with Chef Brian Howard on an upcoming restaurant concept blending culinary innovation with Las Vegas’s creative pulse.

* President of the Philadelphia Nonprofit Advertising Agency (Vegas Chapter) — supporting causes that uplift communities through storytelling and outreach.

At the heart of everything I do is a simple philosophy: elevate every experience — whether it’s a brand campaign, a hospitality venture, or a community initiative.
