Proven marketing leader and content creator

Marketing leader by day.

A recognized B2B SaaS marketing leader with a proven track record of driving growth and leading strategic initiatives at high-growth private and publicly traded software companies. I have experience scaling high-growth B2B SaaS organizations and driving them toward successful outcomes, including Kira Systems, Intelex Technologies, and Airbase.

Most recently, Airbase was acquired by Paylocity (NASDAQ: PCTY) for $325M, where I played a leading role in shaping product and go-to-market strategy, securing validation and top accolades from major industry analysts, and propelling Airbase to be rated the #1 spend management solution on G2.

Creator by night.

I create content and deliver independent perspectives on news, politics, and modern life. What started as a passion for storytelling has grown into a multi-million dollar personal brand, with a following of over 500,000 across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and X, with my videos garnering more than 250 million views. I was recognized by YouTube as a Creator on the Rise and ranked by Favikon as the #1 Canadian Marketing Influencer in 2025. I am also frequently featured in national news outlets.

Content creation sparked my love for storytelling and led me to pivot my career from finance to marketing.
