In My Own Words
I am a young marketing professional with over 4 years of experience in marketing, sales and customer service. I recently moved to Los Angeles from Denver, Colorado looking to get a start in the life-style and extreme sports industry. My background is in the hospitality industry doing everything from digital marketing to event sales. I am a driven, assertive worker who thrives under pressure. My strong work ethic allows me to learn quickly. I enjoy being challenged and believe in learning new skills each day.
