Managing Partner, St. Louis at Outrider
Greater St. Louis Area
I am currently Managing Director, for Outrider US, providing operational management and senior account strategy leadership for the organization. I am responsible for the overall management of Outrider's St. Louis headquarters, development and facilitation of partner programs, consistent messaging across all channels, and oversees client and employee enrichment.
I have served as a leader in the interactive industry for more than the past decade. Active in the industry since its inception, I have provided strategy and consulting for brands including Anheuser-Busch, USB Warburg, Spring, Republic of Tea, Verizon and Microsoft. In 1995, I co-founded StudioPointe Interactive, a company that provided online presence and website strategy and website development. I joined ShearTech Advantage (partially owned by Skillsoft Corporation), where I served as Vice President of Operations. I later joined SteadyRain as vice president of sales and marketing, before joining Outrider in 2005 as Director of Strategic Services.
Innovation and diligence are key characteristics of my work. My work has received industry recognition, including two Targeted Advertising & Marketing (TAM) Awards and three ADDY Awards, a highly-competitive award given by the American Advertising Federation, recognizing creative excellence in the industry. I am also a recipient of two Omni Awards, an industry award recognizing outstanding media production, and was featured in 2001 as one of St. Louis' "30 Under 30" by the St. Louis Business Journal, an award that recognizes the city's top professionals under the age of 30 who are making a mark on in the business world. I holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Japanese Studies from Earlham College.
Outside of the office, I am actively involved in the St. Louis community. I serve on the St. Patrick Center Board of Trustees and I am a member of the American Chamber Chorale Board.
