From brand strategy and creative direction to storytelling and campaign execution, she ensures that every message resonates and every effort drives measurable impact.

Her career began as a TV news reporter, where she honed her ability to tell meaningful stories and connect with people in real time. Since then, she’s led creative teams, built brands from the ground up, and developed marketing strategies across a range of industries. That unique blend of storytelling and strategy gives her a big-picture perspective on how to elevate organizations and connect with the audiences they serve.

Elise balances her workaholic tendencies with family time, fueled by good food from her husband, her high school sweetheart, and resident chef. With two young girls, life stays delightfully full, and in her spare time she’s often tackling a home project, dancing in the kitchen, or reorganizing something just for fun. Her family keeps her grounded, laughing, and grateful for the beautiful chaos that fills their home.
