Social Media & Content StrategistI build behavior-led marketing systems that connect creative execution with measurable business outcomes.
01, About
I'm a Toronto-based strategist working at the seam of social, content, and influencer systems. I plan campaigns the way I run ops, small, repeatable units that compound. I've shipped end-to-end across Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and eCommerce surfaces, and I like the work most when creative ambition meets a real measurement plan.
Reliable under pressure. Detail-obsessed. Fast to execute.

03, Selected projects
Self-initiated passion project (not client work)
Klothique, Timeless Style. Modern Essence.
Self-initiated passion project, not client work. During lockdown I invented Klothique, a fictional Toronto quiet-luxury fashion house, with no client and no brief, to prove a thesis: restraint outperforms noise in the inbox. I shaped the full brand baseline and a five-template lifecycle email system in a single navy + ivory + brass system.
