Brand marketing and creative operations leader

I connect brand strategy, creative production and the operational systems required to bring ambitious ideas to life.

I bring a decade of experience leading strategy, storytelling and cross-functional teams to build mission-driven consumer brands.

Services / Skills

  • Four staff members wearing matching yellow shirts and hats working behind a counter at an event, with a green textured backdrop and a sign that says "JUST" in the background.

    Integrated Marketing

    I turn big campaign ideas into coordinated strategy and execution across creative, digital, PR, influencer, experiential, retail and strategic partnerships.

  • Pumpkin spice mayo.

    Digital Growth

    I combine brand thinking with hands-on digital execution. I’ve owned strategy, operations and performance reporting across website, email, social, SEO, e-commerce and digital partnerships.

  • A person riding a bicycle past a bus stop with an advertisement saying "The future of meat, delivered" and an image of a meatless chicken nugget.

    Brand Strategy

    From positioning to strategic partnerships, I specialize in making unfamiliar or complex products understandable, relevant and desirable.

  • People sitting on the floor working on colorful paper cut-outs with various shapes and patterns, in a room with whiteboard walls covered in sketches and designs.

    Creative Operations

    I build the structure that helps creative teams do their best work: clear briefs, intake and prioritization, workback schedules, approvals, asset plans and cross-functional accountability.

  • A woman in a plaid shirt preparing food outdoors surrounded by fresh ingredients like avocado, tomato, and bread, with a man partially visible next to her.

    Content Creation

    I know how to make strong work—and how to get strong work made. My experience spans creative briefing, production, agency and talent management, hands-on content creation and brand copywriting.

  • Books, plants, and electronic devices on white shelves and table at a display or office space.

    AI Workflows

    I use AI to build smarter, more efficient marketing systems—not to replace the human judgment and creativity that make a brand distinctive. I build lean marketing systems using reusable skills, agents and automated workflows.

About

I’m Shannon! A marketing professional and outdoor enthusiast based in Portland, Oregon.

Over the past decade, I helped grow an early-stage food-tech company into a national consumer brand—launching category-defining products, building integrated campaigns and scaling the marketing engine behind them. I’m especially drawn to mission-driven brands working in sustainability, CPG and the outdoors.

I’d love to bring my marketing expertise to your team or project.
