Bio
I'm a managing partner at Sculpt, a Digital Marketing startup. I hail from Buffalo Grove, Illinois, but for the last four years I've called Iowa City my home. In that time, I've had the opportunity to work for some amazing, emerging brands throughout the Eastern Iowa area.

If you ask me what I do, I'll tell you I build and engage online communities using words and media. But in the purest sense, I make people laugh. Think. Feel.

Find me on my favorite platforms. I love to network.
