I help consumer brands build ambassador programs that drive sales, UGC, and community-led growth Ambassador & Community Growth Strategist helping bra
I’m a founder-turned growth strategist with an MBA and hands-on experience building and scaling consumer brands through ambassador and community-led marketing. I founded and operated a niche e-commerce brand in the BookTok space that generated $145K+ in lifetime revenue, primarily through organic social, influencer partnerships, and ambassador programs. I led everything from brand positioning and product strategy to creator outreach, campaign execution, and conversion optimization. Now, I help brands design and implement high-performing ambassador programs that turn creators into long-term partners — driving UGC, trust, and repeatable revenue without relying solely on paid ads. My work sits at the intersection of strategy and execution: I build systems founders can actually sustain. I work best with early-stage and growing consumer brands looking for thoughtful growth, strong community, and clear ROI.
