New Media Marketing Consultant
Greater New York City Area
My background is varied. After spending over 14 years in Wall St. as a vice-president in sales and marketing, I transitioned into financial news TV and worked as an editorial producer at CNN Financial News for 6 ½ years. When the financial network shut down in Dec. 2005, I made my move to the internet, editing AOL Latino’s welcome page and news channel for a year. Currently I’m using my skills and experience in media to help small businesses and solo entrepreneurs with internet marketing strategies. My specialty is using blogs, email newsletters and online social networks to get my clients noticed by the press and by their target markets.
