About

Partnerships, marketing, and business development leader with 15+ years of experience driving growth, building brands, and developing strategic alliances across technology, entertainment, consumer products, retail, and e-commerce. Throughout my career, I have operated at the intersection of partnerships, marketing, and business development - developing integrated campaigns, strategic alliances, go-to-market initiatives, and growth programs that drive revenue, expand audiences, strengthen brands, and unlock new business opportunities. Currently, I lead Strategic Partnerships for SHEIN Marketplace, driving ecosystem growth through strategic alliances, enterprise brands, technology providers, logistics partners, and go-to-market initiatives. Previously, I held marketing leadership roles at Amazon Music, where I led high-impact brand and partnership initiatives, and at Pixi Beauty, where I built global partnerships with brands including Disney, Spotify, American Express, and Universal Music Group. My experience spans strategic partnerships, brand marketing, go-to-market strategy, business development, consumer marketing, integrated campaigns, sponsorships, and cross-functional leadership. I am passionate about building meaningful partnerships that create value for customers, brands, and businesses alike.
