About
As the Lead, Branded Content + Shopping (Global) at Pinterest, I leverage my 14 years of international fashion industry experience and my advanced communication skills to create bespoke shopping opportunities that meet pinners where they are. I work with creators, publishers, on-platform talent, and brand partners to combine original content, product innovation, and video-to-commerce formats.
I joined Pinterest in Nov 2022 as the Lead Creative Executive, Shopping, and scaled and launched a video commerce product into core, across our top global markets. In Jun 2023, I was promoted to lead our Originals team in how we think about shopping and advertorial formats, expanding from the US to Canada and the UK. Now globally, I work closely with our editorial and sales teams and consult on other emerging formats that strengthen shopping across our product. My mission is to empower pinners to discover and buy what they love, and to help brands reach and engage their audiences.
