From brand strategy, to product design, I've learned how to solve all kinds of problems through the strategic deployment of information.
A veteran of New York design and marketing agencies, I've worked on many different types of projects with a wide range of corporate partners.
Here are a few recent project highlights:
Data-Driven Content Decisions
Defined content guidelines for J.P. Morgan Wealth Plan, including CTA experimentation that lead to 40% increase in engagement
End-to-End Content Design
Led the content design of Mastercard Click to Pay, from technical specifications to global EMVCo payments solution used by millions, reducing checkout times by 50%
Experiments
Helped 400k new-to-credit cardholders stay on track for an upgrade to Freedom Unlimited with a holistic communications strategy
Upcoming events
The Experimentation Advantage
What if a small tweak in your content could double engagement? In this talk, we’ll explore how experimentation—through A/B testing, personalization, and user insights—can transform content strategy into measurable success.
We’ll uncover the power of testing small changes, learning from failure, and fostering a culture of continuous improvement. Whether you’re a designer, marketer, or strategist, you’ll walk away with a new mindset: content isn’t just created—it’s discovered through experimentation.
