I founded Ascent Social after observing many local small businesses under-utilizing the power of social media and the digital space to help them achieve their goals. Ascent Social exists to come alongside these businesses and better allow them to do what they do best. After carefully analyzing a business's current state, our team develops a strategic plan centered around optimized digital marketing and social media engagement. In leading a team in this, I have learned and mastered many aspects of social media marketing, search engine optimization (SEO), web development, and content creation. From exploring software such as Hootsuite, Sprout, and Buffer to coming alongside businesses and helping them understand the practical tools they can use to create successful social media strategies, I work hard to maintain excellence and integrity in all I do as founder and small business.
