“We have to continually be jumping off cliffs and developing wings on our way down” - Kurt Vonnegut Stagnation doesn’t lead to innovation and success; calculated risk taking does and that is something I'm constantly vigilant about in my work. My experiences at large companies like Penguin Random House, Inc. and start-ups like Women Auto Know have given me background in B2B and B2C digital marketing and social media strategy. I want to help companies develop comprehensive business strategies via analytical research of data trends that establish and sustain client relationships through connections built on trust. A news and information junkie, I am interdisciplinary and excited to work in a fast-paced business environment where adaptability and creative solutions are key. In my spare time, I enjoy stretching my boundaries. Whether it’s taking coding lessons, power weightlifting, home-cooking, or reading a Mitch Albom novel, I challenge myself to skill-build not just at work, but in every aspect of my life. My goal is to build a career in business development, technology, digital marketing and strategy, or publishing.
