Biography

I grew up in Texas and was raised by two hippies, an artist and a forester. I went to college at UNT to pursue my love of graphic design. Even though I was really good at it I was way to analytical to really take off in the design world. So I took my design knowledge and graduated from the business college, leading teams in my capstone courses and scoring top of class with them.

In 2007, I landed my first career job in a marketing management role at local digital agency. Within a few months my talent for process improvement and finding innovative solutions was recognized. My success there and my experiences with SEM and SEO eventually led me to a role at Travelocity where I worked in a startup business venture known as AllHotels.com. I managed SEO requirements for a new CMS platform, which launched in12 languages. It was an intense project that tested and challenged my SEO game developing my skills in information architecture (the logical/analytical side of great UX design) and agile methodologies for project management. Looking to leave the hotel industry I landed a role with Ciena, a major B2B telecom company, where I set out to capture leads and cultivate them. In my three years there I was able polish my skills in the art of content marketing and the customer journey.

I am still in Texas, working from home picking up freelance projects and seeking the next great opportunity. I love what I do and look forward to helping others grow their business and engage their customers in the digital space.
