Marketing & Sales

I guess you'd call me a problem solver – after all, marketing is all about deeply understanding an audience and how products or services can solve their problems and make their lives better. I'm uniquely capable of speaking both creative and business, product and marketing. I love working with others and getting folks to rally around a common objective. Ideally, that goal influenced by the voice of the customer and not just the bottom line. This can be difficult, especially within highly regulated fields, but I’ve got you covered.Although my first degree is in design, I have always been interested in science and technology, especially growing up with a disabled sister. I saw how innovations made her and my parent's lives easier, so I finally decided to go back to school to become a nurse. Though nursing school wasn't quite the right fit, the world of innovation to improve lives still excited me. How could I use my design and marketing talents within this regulated space? I saw an opportunity to combine passion and experience (especially in other regulated fields), so I decided to start down a path to apply my extensive background in marketing and design to create solutions for B2C and B2B companies. My goal? Helping them forge meaningful connections with their customers and ultimately, create positive change through the power of science and technology. My specialty is bringing together cross functional teams to rally around the same goal - let's do something that's never been done before! And when I'm not working• I'm in the midst of finishing my masters from Rochester Institute of Technology with an emphasis on marketing and leadership.• I currently volunteer for my local chapter of PMI and am on the marketing committee for Pasadena Humane, a local no-kill animal shelter.
