Founder & Creative Strategist | Innovator
With a diverse educational background in Digital Marketing, Art and Valuation, and Consumer & Theatre Studies, I have carved a unique career path that blends creativity with strategic business acumen. As the founder of Puddings and Biscakes, I launched a curated collection of lifestyle goods and experiences, emphasizing tradition and nostalgia. Previously, I founded BBNY Group LLC, an experiential consultancy, where I led brand development and launched successful events and virtual conferences. My tenure as VP of Marketing/Communications at Neuman's Kitchen saw me spearheading marketing initiatives and launching an e-commerce site during the pandemic. At Irish Studio, I was instrumental in launching a new event division, and as a Senior Executive Search Consultant at Lucas Group, I consistently exceeded performance metrics. My career is marked by a passion for innovation and a commitment to excellence in every endeavor.
