I've also worked with leading marketing agencies, gaining recognition from prestigious sources like Fox, ABC, NBC, CEO Medium, Entrepreneur, Market Watch, and Yahoo Finance.

As a co-founder of NEW PMU, a California-based beauty startup, and a partner and fractional CMO at Scimatch, an AI-powered social and dating app, I've navigated the challenges of launching and managing businesses in the USA. This first-hand experience has given me invaluable insights into the entrepreneurial world, which I'm passionate about sharing to help others succeed.
