What I do
Brand, performance, content and events, under one roof.
Most small teams hire for one and hope the rest follow. I've led all four at scale, so they work together from day one.
Brand marketing.
Positioning, messaging, voice and a visual system that make you recognizable everywhere you show up.
Performance marketing.
Paid social and search campaigns, landing pages and conversion-focused creative, measured against leads, sales and enrollments.
Content marketing.
Social media, blogs, newsletters, short video and customer stories that build trust and keep your audience coming back.
Event planning.
Launches, open houses, ceremonies and conferences, planned and promoted end to end by someone who has run commencements for 8,000+ guests.

Built for teams without a full-time marketing leader
You need marketing that is steady and professional, but a senior hire isn't in the budget yet. That's exactly who ABR Studio is for.
Schools and mission-driven organizations
Small colleges, career and trade schools, education startups and nonprofits. I've marketed programs, launches and enrollment at university scale, and I know how your audience decides.
Local and regional small businesses
Owners with up to about 50 employees who want to look and sound like the best in their market. Chicago-area clients can meet in person.
How it works
From a short form to marketing that works every month
Free Brand Check
A short online form, then a senior review of your website, social channels, ads and how AI search describes you.
Your plan
A scorecard, three quick wins and one clear recommendation. No menu of upsells.
Steady execution
Your calendar is set a month ahead and delivered on time, every time.
Results you can read
A one-page monthly report on the 2 or 3 numbers you care about, readable in five minutes.
What you can hold me to
Five promises behind every piece of work
Clarity first.
Plain language, clear goals and a report anyone on your team can read.
Results you can measure.
Every plan names 2 to 3 shared metrics up front, and every report shows how they moved.
Consistency over noise.
No ghosting and no feast-or-famine posting. Your brand shows up every week.
Human-led, AI-powered.
AI speeds the drafting. A senior marketer reviews every piece for voice, accuracy and fit.
Open doors.
Big-brand know-how made affordable, with a focus on small, women-owned, minority-owned and mission-driven organizations.
