A little bit about me
Nearly 14 years ago, after finishing my MBA at Miami University, I moved to Chicago and started in client services for a marketing company that specialized in coordinating in-store product demonstrations (think mini cups with toothpicks of food being handed out at your local grocer). I loved managing the accounts that were assigned to me (Kraft and General Mills), and that first job set me on the path to where I am today... a disciplined and results-oriented marketing professional that specializes in client services.
Think of me as an advocate for your brand. I will work as hard to promote your message and brand as you do... I'm passionate about your success! My philosophy is simple: we work hard together as a team and keep communication open and honest. With that as my guiding principle, I have found success. I'd like to invite you to take a look around my resume page to get an understanding of the breadth and depth of my experience.
I recently moved to Los Angeles, but I am open to wonderful, challenging opportunities in cities worldwide. I am willing and able to relocate, so if there's a fit between your organization and what I offer... let's talk!
