Jinal Shah’s Summary

Early in my career, I developed and launched, IdeaBlob.com, the first social network ever created by a credit card company (Advanta). In my current role as a strategist at Electric Artists, I continue to keep this innovative edge alive and steer my clients in developing and executing a more enlightened point-of-view towards interactive marketing and digital media.

My non-traditional career path has given me the ability to pursue both creative and analytical skills. This ensures that my work continues to push innovations for my client while still rooted strongly in their business goals.

I love the Internet and the possibilities it holds. I'm particularly interested in digital publishing and branded content development as it marries my education in journalism and my experience in digital media.
