I use storytelling, strategy, and leadership to bring human-centered innovation to international companies and organizations
geography of strangers
Geography of Strangers is a travel card game designed to make us open and ready to meet new people while traveling. The game was built after months of research for my Independent Design Research Studio at Parsons.
design x convergence
In May 2018, I served as a team leader for a group of Parsons students who created and organized a strategic design conference. Design x Convergence: Strange Proximities & Unexpected Conversations took place at multiple venues across Parsons’ New York City campus, bringing together thinkers, makers, and artists from radically different backgrounds to discuss off the wall topics.

In my role as a Strategist, I helped align executive goals around a global marketing strategy and lead an eCommerce replatforming.
Strategy at Nanette lepore
I started in the warehouse at 16, changing white hangers to black ones. Then ran social and digital marketing while art directing photo shoots and runway shows. Later, I lead international expansion and our search for financial partners. I practiced human centered design and systems thinking to do it.

Photography, Art & travel
Developed an aesthetics of playful chaos & rococo indulgence. A simulacra of American late-capitalist aristocracy. The uncanny performance of what life looks like when things fall apart. Shot on film.
