Director of Strategic Planning, FCB Chicago

I’m a dedicated leader with experience in strategy, branding, marketing, innovation, statistical analysis, project management, sales, and mentorship. I work by day as a Strategy Director building smarter, more impactful brands at award-winning advertising agency, FCB Chicago.

Additionally, I’m actively involved within the diversity, equity, inclusion, and education space as a director, mentor, or associate board member for several organizations throughout Illinois and Wisconsin such as the Chicago Sinfonietta, Closing the Achievement Gap Consortium's African American Youth Initiative, and After School Matters.

Prior to FCB, I spent 8.5 years in finance across investment banking, corporate finance, and corporate banking, most recently as an AVP Portfolio Manager for Associated Bank, a U.S. regional bank serving communities throughout the Midwest and Texas. I strongly believe my non-traditional track to advertising has given me a unique POV on the world and the work, which allows me to marry my cultural fluency with my analytic background to drive data-driven insights and breakthrough creative campaigns across all channels.
