I’m a Kansan by birth, Chicagoan by choice and communications professional by accident.
Today, I am the director of public relations at Conversant, the digital media arm of Epsilon and leader in personalized digital advertising. (important note: the views and opinions expressed here are solely my own and should in no way be considered official stances of Conversant, Epsilon or our parent company, Alliance Data). During my 10+ year career, I have been fortunate to view the advertising and media industries through a variety of lenses while working for local and global agencies.
In addition to the typical responsibilities you’d expect of today’s communications professionals (writing, media relations, event organization, etc.), I have driven social media initiatives, executed paid search and search engine reputation management programs for company executives and learned HTML and CSS in order to better lead digital projects such as website development for desktop and mobile devices.
This site touches a bit on my thoughts on my work, my running and my life. Just click on one of the categories to the left to dive-in and get started. I hope you enjoy.
