Oh, you mean, who am I? Well, let me ask: who are YOU? No, really. I’m super curious and would love to know more about you!

I love connection. Connecting with you, connecting with others, and helping inspires others to connect with others.

But since you asked: the threads that tie my life and career together are community, creativity, and communication. 

I am originally from Minneapolis, and I arrived in Stockholm Sweden back in 2012, after having lived several years in both Chicago and New York City.

I spent many years dreaming of life surrounded by music and had many years of fun playing and participating in the indie music community.

Over the course of my professional journey, I worked in an indie guitar store: a major microphone and audio manufacturer; a founding member of the Policy team at Etsy; led community, marketing and product for a coworking startup; and was Head of Social Media, Community and Moderation for Star Stable, a video game about horses with an ardent community of players. I have also led the Comms team and currently work with community at TEDxStockholm.

I am at my happiest and best when working with fun and thoughtful people to build and cultivate meaningful communities.
