Partner & Influencer Relations Consultant

I spent 20 years in professional sales before starting my own company to assist new entrepreneurs in the launch of their own product or service. I have been on both sides of media relations having done numerous media appearances with my own brands alongside pitching and placing clients on local TV segments. I launched Bespoke Influence as a way to help brands increase their visibility by partnering with fun, engaging, and trusted influencers. I am passionate about designing custom influencer programs for our clients and helping their business grow. Having a strong background in research and a passion for entrepreneurs, I love uncovering and testing new innovative products and services.
