I'm using my decade-plus of marketing, e-commerce and product experience to create strategy, build campaigns and drive success. This experience made me realize how hard it was getting to collect, explore and action customer data, so I also founded Theia, a boutique customer research service for brands ready to grow. My breadth of experience has developed a broad perspective in analyzing and attacking challenges. I hope to be able to share it with you.
