Enjoying the Web 2.0 world. I help companies integrate digital marketing strategies into their traditional marketing. Together we seek opportunites to engage and empower their audience and create a stronger brand by communicating through new media channels.
I started down this path three years ago, because I am half journalist and half geek. I have fifteen years of marketing experience including branding, lead generation, strategy, business development, event management, and web and interactive. Online is my passion.
I am also an entrepreneur at heart. I enjoy helping startups grow and I undertake new and exciting projects as my time permits.
I am particularly excited about my new role, which will allow me to utilize my passion to help the city and region of Pittsburgh.
My affiliations include the American Marketing Asscoiation, Pittsburgh Chapter.
