PROFESSION

Director, Corporate Communications

About

I’m a wordsmith, strategist and creative director with 16 years in the communications and marketing industry. I started out as a journalist back when folks used to get those things called newspapers delivered to their doorstep. My adventures in reporting took me for a ride on a U.S. Coast Guard rescue boat, down a wild beach searching for sea turtles, on a motorcycle into Bike Week, into the home of a gunshot victim, and more city hall meetings than I wish to remember. Becoming a self-starter was critical. I learned about something new every day and shared stories with more than 100,000 daily readers. When I transitioned into aviation/aerospace higher education, this can-do attitude set me up for several leadership roles in marketing. Over the last decade, I’ve learned how to coordinate across web strategy, social media, events, multimedia, and creative design to launch domestic (U.S.) and international campaigns.
