About Me

I’m Elisabeth, a founder and storyteller interested in how people connect with ideas, brands, and each other.

I founded Girl Gains and grew it from one campus into a community spanning 83+ college campuses. Along the way, I’ve built the infrastructure behind a growing community, shaped the brand and its voice, and led partnerships with brands like Nike and Gymshark.

I’m especially interested in why certain stories resonate in the first place: what makes someone see themselves in an idea, want to be part of it, and ultimately choose to follow, join, or buy into it.

Now, I want to bring that understanding of people and storytelling into media and entertainment.

What I do

STORYTELLING

Finding the strongest story, angle, or perspective inside an idea, and the thing only that person or brand can say.

AUDIENCE INSIGHT

Understanding what people care about, what makes them pay attention, and what makes an idea feel relevant enough to come back to.

CREATIVE DIRECTION

Turning an idea into content, campaigns, experiences, and a cohesive brand voice.
