Two passports. One obsession with getting it right.
I'm American — born and raised in the United States. For the last several years I've lived in Europe, but have traveled to Riyadh often to support clients and agencies with public relations services. I genuinely understand both ends of the journey: the hospitality, rhythm, and expectations of a GCC family, and the on-the-ground logistics of American cities.
That dual lens is the entire reason this agency exists.
I know that "comfortable" in Riyadh doesn't mean the same thing as "comfortable" in a US hotel chain. I know which American cities have proper halal restaurants, which have a real majlis-style hospitality scene, and which mosques to recommend for Friday prayers near each stadium.
Born in California, raised in Oklahoma, and with a decade in NYC to start my public relations career, I've worked in public relations for 20 years. From top brands such as Marc Jacobs, Versace, Intel, LG, British Airways, W Hotels, and more to working at agencies such as Ogilvy and Fleishman Hillard, I've always found a way to travel. With past addresses in NYC, Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, Mexico City, and Bath, England, I now live between Berlin, Germany, and Stockholm, Sweden, with frequent travel to Saudi Arabia.
