I spent over eight years inside one of the fastest-growing CPG brands in the country. Now I use everything I learned to help brands like yours create content that actually converts.

I was the first creative hire at Truvani in 2017, back when it was a scrappy startup with a big vision. Over the next several years I built out the visual identity, ran shoots, directed video, and helped grow it into the number one plant-based protein brand in the country, stocked at Whole Foods, Target, Walmart, and Erewhon.

That experience taught me something most agencies and freelancers don't know: what it actually takes to feed a brand's content machine at scale. Not just beautiful images, but the right assets for every channel, every format, refreshed constantly.

Today I work with growth-stage CPG brands as a one-person creative studio, combining traditional photography and video with AI-assisted production workflows to deliver more without sacrificing quality.

What I do

Three ways I help brands create more and move faster.

01
Brand Photography

Product, lifestyle, and editorial photography built for the channels that matter: Amazon listings, DTC websites, social, and paid ads. Shot and delivered with clear creative direction from day one.

02
Video Production

Brand films, social reels, product demos, and UGC-style content. I handle concept through delivery, directing, shooting, and editing, cut for every platform you need.

03
AI-Enhanced Creative

For brands that need volume without the budget of a full production. I combine AI tools with real creative direction to deliver thousands of on-brand assets, all launch-ready.

Let's make something worth looking at.

Whether you're launching a new SKU, building out your Amazon presence, or just running low on content, I'd love to hear about it.
