I’m a first-gen mixed race daughter of immigrants and probably the only Jewminican you know.
Dreamer, dancer, writer (unless it’s morning).
I'm a professional chameleon who has been lucky enough to hone my skills all over the world. I grew up partly in other countries, and learned grassroots marketing in China. Within the U.S, I’ve run the gamut of all different environments: startups, freelance, mid-size agencies, Fortune 100 companies, and more. In one of my first internships, I had the chance to learn scriptwriting and ghostwrite articles for USA Today and HuffPost. No matter what I did, marketing, media, and creative production was always a common thread.
Now, I live el sueño in the city of angels. I get to work on Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune - shows that I happily, nerdily grew up watching. This is my second year judging the Imagen Awards and I’m a recurring judge for the NYC Midnight global writing competition.
I’m an activist and revolutionary who is determined to become an industry executive and inspire lasting change from inside out. I believe in the importance of representation in media, the power of storytelling, and the impact of opening doors for others. And I will continue to use my platform to champion a diverse, inclusive, and celebrated community of voices.
Flawlessly flawed.

I could present myself as perfectly polished
(I’m originally from CT we’re good at that).
But it would be a lie.
Like many others, I deal with daily chronic pain, and struggle with mental health. It does not define me, but it is a part of who I am.
Even though it’s scary to reveal such personal details and open myself to judgement, I have to do so. Because these topics are still way too stigmatized in modern society.
If you want to learn more about my story, and those of others like me, I highly recommend “No End In Sight,” a podcast by Brianne Benness about life with chronic illness.
