About

Built by an Enterprise Operator with 25 yrs Experience

The story

I built Influence & Inspire Consulting after years inside agencies and enterprise marketing organizations where I saw the same pattern repeatedly. Brands knew creator marketing was an essential part of their marketing mix but very few were structurally prepared to manage it well.

The gaps were clear:

  • 01Measurement was inconsistent
  • 02Ownership was fragmented
  • 03Influencer selection and vetting lacked structure and were time-consuming
  • 04Creator programs lacked operational rigor

I started Influence & Inspire to help organizations operationalize authentic influence—without losing the humanity that makes it effective in the first place.
