Professional Experience
As you may have already read, my journey began with serving in the Army right after 9/11; which eventually led to college and thus, my professional experience.
A leading customer-centric digital marketer with a hybrid background. My experience consists of extensive strategic, technical and creative skills; unique in today’s marketplace. I have an MBA in Marketing and hold undergrad degrees in Advertising and Visual Communications as well as certifications in SEO, SEM, SMO, and Web Design, graduate-level certificate in E-commerce Management, in addition to a Disruptive Innovation certificate from Harvard.
Passion has led to 10 years of demonstrated, evolving experience that has contributed to a successful history of results-producing strategic initiatives. My background includes cross-channel digital marketing strategy development consisting of defining online tone of voice, content development, content management/CMS, SEO, SEM, social media strategy, web analytics, paid social media, display advertising, e-commerce management, web design (big browser, mobile-optimized and responsive design), and mobile applications.
I approach the digital transformation as a growing opportunity, not a threat.
Producing successful digital strategies has increased online engagement and brand equity; while creating a personal touch and humanizing the brand. It is this ability that has fostered online communities and brand trust. I have championed digital strategy development and am well-poised to deliver performance excellence to further deepen the brand’s digital footprint and strengthen the customer journey.
