President of thunder::tech, an integrated marketing agency
Cleveland/Akron, Ohio Area
My expertise resides in integrating multiple marketing services for clients. I have 10+ years of digital, branding, advertising, public relations and marketing experience.
I have started several businesses since 1997. My marketing agency, thunder::tech, works with a variety of growth oriented enterprises of many sizes and industries. I value the relationships that thunder::tech builds with our clients and having referrals as our predominant source of new business is our highest compliment.
As a speaker, I have shared my knowledge on marketing, branding and social media with a variety of professional organizations and at many conferences and universities. I am very active in my community sitting on nonprofit boards and volunteering on various committees.
