Starbucks
Group Manager, Global Brand Strategy | 10/2016 - 10/2017
I was privileged enough to be a storyteller on behalf of arguably one of the most iconic brands of our time. Starbucks prides itself on being performance driven through the lens of humanity. My role fits squarely in telling the stories of our humanity and all the good we do.
The work: Brand Planning & Strategy; Values & Culture.

My charge is also how Starbucks helps shape modern culture through pop cultural beats, entertainment, music & more.
Starbucks
US Multicultural, LatAm & Caribbean Brand Strategy | 11/2015 - 10/2016
For my first year @Starbucks I led US Multicultural strategy as well as Latin American & Carribbean Brand Strategy. For our Latin American & Carribbean business, I had the pleasure & honor to work with 14 teams across the regions who develop and bring to life our brand locally. From our overarching brand & product strategy, comes to life some truly incredible locally relevant work. We have so many great local stories to tell from origin coffee to culturally relevant products & services.
On the US Multicultural side, my charter was to establish and sell in a philosophy for how to best to drive engagement and participation amongst Multicultural audiences in our retail cafes. The first role of its kind, the work I performed here is what led to the Culture strategy role listed above, building on inclusivity vs. segregated storytelling.
