Well, since you asked, here’s a little bit about me…

I kicked off my first career as a TV station intern. After an Emmy win, two Creative Director jobs, five cross-country moves, and ten years in broadcast, I quit and dove headfirst into social media.

Since then, I’ve been obsessed with digital-social marketing–working with brands and agencies, large and small, B2C and B2B, paid and organic. I bring a wide range of experience across finance, food and beverage, pharma, and online education, and I’ve been lucky enough to work with a wide range of iconic brands such as Lou Malnati’s Pizzeria, DeVry University, Empire Today and ILLY USA.

My hands-on experience includes taking a data driven approach to align content, social customer service, community management, and channel strategies with business objectives. That said, I really get excited when I’m called on to level up paid and organic social media strategies and work with really creative high performing teams.

I am a creative problem solver who always advocates for the customer and when it comes to developing ads, posts, or content that needs to grab an audience, I’m a Jedi.

My loves are photography, comedy, gadgets, quirky vegan restaurants, my 16-year-old gamer kiddo, and my pro-bodybuilder wife of over 15 years (not necessarily in that order).
