Founder, CEO

My responsibility at The Ad Firm is to establish good relationships with potential clients and determine whether they are a good fit for our services. Being that The Ad Firm is a well sought out boutique agency, who we work with is extremely exclusive. I vet all of our potential clients and hand-select the ones I believe in and who will have a beneficial relationship- we invest in our clients, which is why it’s common to have clients for several years, not months. My favorite part about owning this agency is that I can choose to only work with the companies that I know will be a win/win situation for them and us.

What I enjoy most about my position is that I get to come to work every day and look forward to it. It is not common for business owners to work with a passionate staff genuinely happy with their company. I get inspired every day to see how much the team cares about our client’s success and their dedication to developing new skills to grow their careers.

I founded The Ad Firm in 2009 and have had the most amazing clients since. I have an extensive history in marketing and advertising since attending CSU Fullerton and looking forward to seeing the new changes in the industry in the upcoming years!
Anything and all things cars and racing. When I get to take a break from the office, you can find me at my second home- at the race track! Besides that, I enjoy finding the best new places to eat around Southern California and spending time with my family and friends.
