After a year-long journey traveling the world, which led me to working in Hong Kong before returning to my hometown of Chicago to pursue opportunities in digital marketing and project management, while also taking on freelance projects. This path eventually brought me to San Diego, CA, where I partnered with digital agencies that exposed me to a diverse array of brands and problems to solve. Working on solutions for brands like Microsoft, Epson, KIA, Franklin Sports, and La Sportiva, I have demonstrated my versatility and adaptability.
