It’s been a long journey… to get to where I am today, working with large brands and agencies in Chicago, Illinois.

My story began over 15yrs ago when I began building websites out of my basement and shooting videos in jr. high and high school to make an extra buck on the side. My designs weren’t attractive. But, I was grateful for anyone and everyone who provided me the opportunity to bring their brand to life on the internet.

Fast forward several years and I began to discover that my passion became facilitating as a practitioner of brands and looking for ways to grow each and every one through intelligent video production, engaging stories and effective marketing strategies. I began to see that my love for the business aspects of the industry fascinated me.

And one thing is for sure… freelancing is tough. I set out to change that after watching my freelancing friends throw in the towel and stop following their dream, simply because they didn’t understand how to run their business. They weren’t quoting properly.  They weren’t asking the right questions. And… they were spending more time on paperwork than on their gigs.

While they were extremely talented, they would end up forced to close shop after only a short time because they struggled to manage the business aspects of their company. Enter freelancekit.

You work hard to build your freelance business, and I’m passionate about helping you reach that goal! If you have any questions about freelancekit, freelancing in general, or running your own business, don’t hesitate to drop me a line!

Cheers,
