What good is a concept if it’s not backed by insights? Analyzing data from social channels to listening and market research tools allows me to not only report on campaign performance, but enables me to leverage my findings to inform future strategy and creative.

Studying Web and Visual Communications before Facebook existed leaves me with nearly 20 years of experience in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, followed by 10 years of Lightroom.

 

Also being a musician since high school, I have 20+ years of audio editing experience using Adobe Audition (dating back to when it was Cool Edit Pro).

And while my professional photography game is less than five years in, I’m proud to have shot a handful of professional athletes and musicians.

Scheduling tweets or posting on-site during live events always came with the challenge of managing timelines, building editorial calendars, and drafting post copy. It also allowed me to be at the forefront of brand sentiment where I could leverage community learnings to unearth trends, develop voice, implement engagement strategies, and build customer advocacy.
