About me

I’ve spent my career helping busy, passionate people get their work (and lives) running more smoothly.

Before launching Powerhouse, I co-founded and ran studio Good Snake, where I managed big, beautiful projects for clients ranging from brands like Coca-Cola, New Balance, and The FADER to some of my favorite small businesses, boutique hotels, and music festivals. My job was to keep stakeholders aligned, translate creative vision into clear steps, and make sure that the creative magic actually made it out into the world.

I’m a person who often gets the call when something feels stuck; a project that needs structure, a system that needs clarity, a plan that needs to make more sense. I’ve built websites, managed productions, overhauled operations, and untangled inboxes. There hasn’t been a grand plan. I just like figuring out how things work, and helping people feel calm and capable while they do the things they care about.

I’ve shared my perspective at conferences like Creative Works, CROP, and Austin Design Week, and collaborated with countless great talents and big brains who value both good ideas and good systems.

I’m based in Nashville, with footprints in Austin, Vermont, Portland, and Germany, and I love a project that gives me an excuse to hit the road. I speak Spanish and German, and I get my best ideas on hikes, bike rides, and in the middle of cooking dinners where at least one dish finishes way too early. I’m often behind the camera too, taking photos of the people I love.

If something here sparks an idea or makes you think we could work well together, feel free to reach out through my contact page; I'd love to hear what you’re building.
