ABOUT ME
Being born and raised in Toronto there was never a shortage of creative inspiration or a willingness to discover future trends. What’s next, what’s new and how can this be better than the rest sum up my everyday thoughts. For this reason I knew pursuing an education in consumer behaviour was a must. I graduated from George Brown College with a diploma in Business Administration with a Marketing focus. From there I expanded my marketing knowledge with a Post Grad in Sport and Event Marketing. Needless to say my time at George Brown gave me plenty of real world cases to delve into, building potential campaigns for local businesses seeking new marketing initiatives.
​
My other passion is interior decorating. Interning sparked my interest and now I cannot stop looking for creative inspiration. The way fabric, colour and lighting can transform a space excite me immensely and I've dived into learning as much as I can about that industry.Including how to organize spaces adjust make everyday tasks more efficient. You can view my creative contributions both marketing and event related in the experience tab.

​When I’m not people watching you can find me at the latest coffee shop sipping my third Americano or wandering through CB2 for space inspiration.
