About Me

You've seen my TikToks, but you haven't seen me...

Over the past 15 months, I've been instrumental in helping brands and creators generate over $1 million in revenue through TikTok Shop. With over five years of experience in selling products on TikTok, I've been at the forefront of the platform's evolution, turning viral moments into sustainable business growth.

My journey began with scaling some of the largest theme pages on TikTok, and it led me to create one of the first viral #TikTokMadeMeBuyIt videos, which became the second most-viewed TikTok product video in 2021. This not only amplified global awareness of product-based content but also set new standards for organic marketing success.
