About Me
I am currently the Head of Strategy & Operations at Behance.
Previously, I was the Senior Manager for Global Partnerships at TED, where I focused on creating strategic partnerships for TED.com, the TED Conferences, and various other TED properties. At its core, TED is about the power of storytelling, the impact of sharing an idea with a passionate audience: I worked with global brands to tell their stories to the TED community.
Prior to that, I was the Co-Founder and Partner of Industry Digital Media, a digital consultancy that worked with companies, individuals and brands to strengthen their online presence through the use of web analytics, search marketing and social media.
