THE FOUNDATION
My journey began in the kitchen, watching over my parents’ shoulders and creating recipes of my own. While most kids were watching cartoons, I was captivated by Julia Child and the Food Network. That early fascination grew into a deep love for hospitality, branding, and the experience behind great restaurants. I immersed myself in the hospitality industry early on, where I served as Head of Marketing for a multi-location hospitality group creating brands from the ground up. This experience provided the operational depth and strategic insight necessary to lead Saltwater Creative. I bring a unique blend of management experience in hospitality and event planning with a modern, boutique approach to creative direction. I believe that hospitality is more than a business, it is an experience, and my mission is to translate that feeling into marketing that resonates with your audience.
I’m passionate about building brands people don’t just visit, but genuinely connect with.
