A recently graduated Master’s in Marketing student at The London School of Economics, I am skilled in the psychological, economic, and analytical facets of marketing, developing hard skills in data analysis and market research.
Throughout my undergraduate career at UC Santa Barbara and my time as an exchange student at King’s College London, I collaborated with multiple groups to create marketing briefs and campaigns, as well as conducted research. Through these experiences, I have developed skills in problem-solving, intercultural communication, and establishing clear and relevant communication channels for target markets.
Having graduated with High Honors from the University of California, Santa Barbara with a double major in Communication and Global Studies, I have learned to pay great attention to detail and always be accountable and professional.
While I possess the characteristics of a successful marketer by being innovative, adaptive, and analytical, I also have a unique ability to engage with a diverse range of people and build the bridges necessary to push any team forward.

Since joining Google Cloud in 2015 as Uber TL, I conceived of and drove the modernization of GCP application networking by embracing emerging cloud native technologies using Envoy proxy with Traffic Director as open service mesh and universal control plane that powers all Google Cloud application load balancing products. For large deployments and latency critical services I defined industry first gRPC proxyless mesh that improves on the novel concept of service mesh by removing proxy to simplify service mesh operations.
I also drove convergence of parts of Google Cloud infrastructure stack to bring cohesiveness of networking and autoscaling features parity for VM and container based and serverless workloads.
Before that since 2006, as TL of Global Service Load Balancer (GSLB) for Google services, I designed and developed nextgen GSLB that powers load balancing for all Google properties for internet and service-service traffic, while optimizing for latency, workload capacity and health. I oversaw adoption with 1000X growth in the number of services, while ensuring 5+ nines of availability.
Before Google, I worked at Extreme Networks, Cosine Communications and HolonTech, focusing on designing and building highly reliable distributed network control systems in embedded systems.
Prompt engineer and AI generative writing specialist at Copy.ai
I have been working as a full-time prompt engineer since 2021, bringing literary and copywriting experience to Copy.ai, a generative writing software based on GPT-3 and 4. I’ve developed a wide range of tools, but I focus especially on improving creativity of approach, the “humanness” of the output, and overall writing quality. I also have a background in historical and biographical research. Published author and poet.
Note: due to my role, I do not teach prompt engineering to those outside of the company I work for. If you're looking for a place to start, I'd recommend David Shapiro's videos: https://www.youtube.com/@DavidShapiroAutomator
P.S. I believe that "engineer" is not quite the right term for what I do—early on we tried to get "prompt specialist" going, but the public discourse termed what I did "prompt engineering," and thus emerged the term "prompt engineer." Not ideal, but it's what I call myself because it's what the industry decided my job is called. Thanks!
Global Social Media Brand Marketing at NIQ | Award-Winning Brand Strategist | Human Storyteller | Personal Branding Expert | Keynote Speaker
I help people and companies build and communicate their brand with authentic and effective storytelling.
This is my mission. Helping people and organizations find their unique voice and build a magnetic brand around it.
Ever since I was a kid, I loved a good story. Stories gave things meaning and fostered empathy, and I felt like I was a part of something bigger. Which I was.
After living in 6 countries, and traveling to 50+ more, I listened to people and learned that we all have something to teach and to tell. We just have to find our unique voice.
This led me to pursue a career in branding, helping companies either build their presence or reinvent themselves to attract the right talent and/or customers to scale sustainably.
What gets me out of bed every morning is the desire to engage and inform people with authentic and captivating content.
This commitment extends to personal branding, where I guide individuals on journeys of self-discovery, helping them define their true tone and voice. I facilitate effective communication of their value proposition through targeted content strategies, enabling them to expedite their career or business success.
My background?
I'm a globally experienced professional specializing in Brand Strategy, Employer Branding, Personal Branding, Social Media Marketing and Communications, and Content Management and Development. Working in Fortune 500 companies such as Disney, Intel Corporation, and BlackRock, I learned what makes a good brand story and how to localize it across different cultures.
On LinkedIn, I write about my experience finding my unique voice through vulnerability and authenticity, tips on creating captivating brand experiences for your talent and customers, and how to build and scale your personal brand through storytelling.
