I am a writer, idealist and mission-driven nonprofit leader.
Most recently, I managed cross-channel communications strategy, marketing process and messaging as the senior associate director of integrated marketing and communications for research, science and medical affairs at the Alzheimer’s Association. Previously, I directed marketing, communications and PR activities for the Brain Injury Association of America and led the first-ever consolidated marketing, communications and events team at the Jewish Philanthropies of Southern Arizona.
I earned my master’s degree in journalism from Stanford University. I am a board trustee for Tucson Hebrew Academy, a volunteer for Stanford Women In Mentoring, and a fellow of Women InPower, a network of female leaders across sectors and industries.
