Thank you for visiting my LinkedIn profile. My objective is to serve in an online marketing communications capacity with an organization that is truly committed to focusing business development efforts and resources in this area.
I have ten years of marketing communications experience in a corporate setting, consistently: a) working with, and communicating across, multiple department lines and management levels and b) ensuring marketing efforts are aligned with branding, message and budget parameters.
My project management background spans numerous professional- and consumer-targeted initiatives involving both traditional and novel marketing tactics such as: print and web-based advertising; broadcast media; direct mail; trade shows and special events; media relations; employee communications; market research; web content management; email marketing; and social media.
I offer a solid background in writing and editing for a variety of needs including: proposals, executive memos, white papers, ads, sell sheets, broadcast scripts, web pages, press releases, and newsletter features.I bring to the table an entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for what I do.
I have a proven aptitude for online marketing, including website development, search engine optimization, email marketing and social media.
