About Me
My Work
I am a recent Yale graduate passionate about brand strategy and producing high quality editorial content to complement your brand. To get to know me better, here are some of my career highlights to date:
At Prophet, I've worked as a brand strategy consultant on clients ranging from a Fortune 500 luxury beauty company to a DTC health startup. I help companies align on their purpose, promise, principles, codify their strategy into messaging and voice standards, and bring their brand strategy to life with naming and activation.
As President of the Yale Fashion House, I piloted the first-ever speaker series, which brings professionals in the fashion industry to speak to our students. Powerful influencers have come to speak to the club, such as Chief Style Critic at the New York Times, Vanessa Friedman, and Designer Stuart Weitzman.
I received a Fulbright Fellowship to continue my advanced Russian language study and spent last summer in Moscow. I also speak six languages at varying levels of fluency.
I have work experience in the fashion industry as a member of the Women@Dior initiative, from historical research at the Fashion Institute of Technology, and marketing at a luxury media company in Paris.
