Experience
-
I studied Communications and Public Relations at Keene State College, with coursework spanning journalism, public relations, film, and communication theory, alongside philosophy and anthropology.
Outside the classroom, I applied this work by covering local stories, producing video content, and supporting community events. These foundational experiences shaped how I approach communication today.

I began my career at Candel Therapeutics, where I worked across communications during a period of growth, transition, and public market readiness.
Starting as an intern and growing into more senior roles, I partnered closely with leadership to support how the company communicated internally and externally. My work spanned digital content, employee engagement, and corporate messaging, with a focus on making complex science more accessible and aligned across audiences.
As the company approached and moved through its IPO, my role expanded into investor-facing communications. I supported executive messaging, investor materials, and major moments including investor days and clinical data announcements.
Over time, I developed a strong foundation in translating science into something clear and meaningful, while navigating the intersection of research, business, and the public markets.

At ALX Oncology, I worked across investor relations and corporate communications during a period of growth and increased visibility.
I partnered closely with leadership to shape how the company communicated its strategy, clinical progress, and overall direction to investors and the broader market. This included managing engagement with analysts and shareholders, supporting investor events, and ensuring consistent, clear messaging across external channels.
I also led a company-wide rebrand, working with internal teams and external partners to evolve the visual identity and digital presence to better reflect the company’s positioning and scientific focus. www.alxoncology.com

Philosophies
Values shape how we operate. In the professional world, being clear on what you value reduces burnout and increases daily satisfaction. For me, collaboration, adaptability, and, most importantly, empowering creativity are core to my identity.
Collaborate
Empower Creativity
Adapt

Humans possess an incredible strength that we often overlook - the collective is stronger than the individual. We must embrace planning with open communication, compassion, and unwavering dedication. I firmly believe that operating in an environment where everyone feels heard and valued is crucial for success. Diverse perspectives foster change, leading to enhanced creativity and effective problem-solving.

In our ever-changing world, change is an inevitable reality. As a proponent of growth, I understand one must experience both triumphs and setbacks. We must approach every conversation with curiosity and a willingness to adapt when necessary.

Creativity has its roots in my parents’ artistic talents. They possess a remarkable ability to transcend conventional boundaries by way of their craft. But it’s not just the artists who are creative. My experiences have convinced me that all humans possess creative potential, even analytical thinkers. To be creative is to achieve success by sharing one’s unique vision with the world, a vision that no one else has conceived. However, to unlock this potential, we must create an environment that nurtures and celebrates both the triumphs and failures of new ideas. Without creative solutions, greatness remains an elusive dream.
