Skills & Work History
I have extensive history in marketing strategy, content creation, leadership, and project management.
A complete work history, professional achievements, and technical skills can be found on my resume and LinkedIn profile.
I’m a small-town Montana native who grew up along the frigid prairie of the Canadian border. It’s gorgeous, vast, and — for a curious kid— really boring.
That isolation made me seek out connections through books, newspapers, and news shows. I religiously watched Barbara Walters on 20/20 with my grandma. I was constantly in trouble for staying up past my bedtime, reading by flashlight.
At the University of Montana, I turned that curiosity into a strength, graduating in 2009 with a B.A. in Broadcast Journalism and working as a radio and television reporter and producer. Eventually, my job took me to sunny St. Petersburg, Florida.
I left journalism for a new challenge, working as a creative marketing specialist for a small local agency. I fell in love with helping businesses put their best face forward and get discovered.
I owned a thriving boutique gym, CrossFit9, for over a decade. I stepped down as owner in early 2024, but I remain the chief storyteller, and continue my marketing work through my personal project, Art & Animal Co. I owe our success to our ability to tell our clients’ stories. We never miss a chance to make them the star of the show!
I am a proud lifelong learner. I completed my MBA in 2022, solidifying my strategic and holistic business knowledge. I’m currently enrolled in a Master of Science program in data analytics, scheduled to start in Spring 2025.
