I'm a web and tech savvy professional with a passion for Marketing. A diverse work history has taken me from interactive project management in an ad agency setting, to helping a technology based non-profit become operational as operations manager. I have been fortunate to share my talents with several non-profits along the way and in the process I have helped to manage over $500,000 in annual contributions as well as provide PR, community outreach, and education services. I'm a strong believer in working and volunteering for the social and civic good. As a social media enthusiast, I recognize its value in the marcomm mix by reinforcing the brand and continuously growing its equity through active engagement. I have a business/marketing degree from Washington University in St. Louis and I have recently completed a Certificate in Advanced Interactive Marketing from the University of Washington. I currently work for
Meteor Solutions, a word-of-mouth analytics company. Find me on

In my spare time, I enjoy blading, reading gadget blogs, and spending time with my family (both 2 and 4-legged). In my travels, I've had fun exploring Norwegian fjords by rail and sea kayak, getting trapped in a bog on a mountainside in Voss, and soaking in the milky mineral waters of a geothermal pool in Iceland. I read The Life of Pi whilst surrounded by acres of 100+ year old tea bushes in Munnar, India and I look forward to revisiting for the duodecennial Neelakurinji blooming in 2018. I'm picky when it comes to pizza, pastrami, and cheesesteaks. And finally, I love the movie TRON and am psyched for the sequel's December 2010 premier.
