Global Marketing Manager
I started at iFixit in 2015 in the EDU department and mastered the way of guide creation. Then I moved into Outreach and Video as the host of our YouTube channel. I left hosting to help grow our Marketing and Design team. Now I manage all our marketing campaigns and deploy an army of creative magicians to bring the brand and fixer lifestyle to the world.

Plants and Animals
"You might belong in Hufflepuff. Where they are just and loyal. Those patient Hufflepuffs are true, And unafraid of toil." —The Sorting Hat
Hufflepuffs also fair well in Herbology! My garden has produced over 25 types of veggies and herbs. I have over 100 indoor plants and one talkative cat named Walker. When I get a break between meetings, I take a walk with my cat through my garden and water my plants.
And on Valentine's Day 2023, I rescued my sweet Josie. Turns out she's 52% Rottweiler and 48% Domberman and 999% cuddle bug.
Music
My mother was an amazing vocal coach and got me involved with theater, music, and dance starting when I was two. If you're eavesdropping on my convos in the office you'll probably hear me talking about what concert I'm going to next.
My favorite band: Glass Animals
Golf+Ski
I was never one for team sports, but during the pandemic I picked up golf and skiing!
