United States

I am an award-winning Digital Marketing Manager with over a decade of professional experience at The Walt Disney Company. Currently, I am the Brand Lead for Disney, Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Disney Princess, and The Muppets. I own the strategy and creative execution for these storied brands and characters across their digital footprint, including on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Threads, and YouTube.

First and foremost, I am a storyteller with a love for characters. I am an expert at ideating and creating brand-safe custom content that fits within legal parameters and top-level direction. I have led the development and execution of brand and character voice strategies on social media for every account I have touched, primarily on the Disney brand handles. I am adept at marketing priority titles and content from multiple touch points, honing creative to fit business needs, and managing individuals and teams.

I am highly skilled at writing social media content, video scripts, interviews, and more in the voice of beloved characters such as The Muppets and Mickey Mouse & Friends. I have written over 300 videos featuring The Muppets for Disney Parks, Disney Executive presentations, various TV appearances, live events, social media videos, and The Muppets Mayhem Disney+ series promotional appearances for Spotify, iHeart Radio, Entertainment Weekly, Billboard, CNN, Huffington Post, Elle, and dozens more.

Throughout my career, I have been honored with several awards including the 2020 Shorty Award for Best Twitter Presence for The Muppets, in which I was the winner and also received the audience honor, and the 2023 Webby Award for Social – Entertainment for Disney TikTok. I was also a finalist for the 2015 Shorty Award for Best Celebrity Social Media for Miss Piggy, the 2020 Shorty Award for Best Facebook Video for Disney Storytime, and the 2021 Shorty Award for Best Twitter Presence for The Muppets.
