I am a political strategist, communications advisor, and entrepreneur working at the intersection of public policy, narrative strategy, and democratic engagement. I hold a degree in Political Science and Sociology from the University of Toronto, and I was born in Toronto and raised between the Greater Toronto Area and the Washington, D.C. region.
In my professional life, I help strengthen democratic engagement for the Government of Canada, and support initiatives that shape communities across the country.
On the side, at MapleMark Media, I help content creators, government officials, and businesses improve their communications, marketing, and build impactful communities.
In my 5-9, I work with leading message-strategy organizations in the United States on research and narrative development projects, contributing to work that shapes public understanding and democratic persuasion.
