Recent experience
Engagement Strategist
During my time at Inprela Communications, I worked with clients seeking B2B public relations and marketing success. I gained positive media coverage, created and executed paid digital ads, shared client stories through written communications and found different pathways for clients to engage with their target audiences.
Marketing Director
During my time with a local brewery, I developed and oversaw the execution of the annual marketing plan and all marketing channels. I owned social media strategy, media relations, campaign activations, event marketing, digital advertising and additional marketing needs to increase brand awareness and grow sales.
Account Executive
While working at K2 & Co.,I controlled multiple client accounts with public relations, development and public affairs goals. This role allowed me to adapt, gain a versatile skill set and own multiple different projects, contributing to the variety of communication strengths I have used in different career experiences.
