As the Production & Inventory Coordinator, I expedite all stages of the printing process for Hay House products (books, card decks, calendars, etc.) and manage physical inventory by running regular reports, proposing reprint quantities, placing orders, tracking deliveries and reconciling invoices.

Orlando, Florida, United States

At Visit Orlando, I was the main point of contact for internal and external clients in the development of a variety of print and digital campaign and event needs. I worked closely with graphic designers to assign projects and communicate changes throughout the design process, collaborating to ensure satisfaction and project success.

Orlando, Florida, United States

In May 2013, I changed roles at the Orlando Sentinel and moved from Production to Sales. The switch was to give me more experience from the sales perspective. In this position, I placed orders in ADIT (order entry system), ensuring that advertising was booked correctly and accurately. I communicated with the sales team and advertisers to efficiently process ad materials and layouts. I provided billing support, where I processed client payments and resolved billing issues. I also supported the development of team special sections, such as A Better You and The Home Improvement Guide. The prior production experience brought a new skill set to this position where I played a key role in the development of the sections and ads because I knew the production side of the process.

Orlando, Florida, United States

I coordinated the daily movement of print ads through AdWatch (an electronic ad workflow software) while monitoring production deadlines for special inserts and other Orlando Sentinel products. I worked closely with Sales to ensure that their ads moved through the system in a timely manner and published error-free. These ads often required changes or design, so I also processed and uploaded layouts, images, text, and other ad building components for delivery to graphic designers.

Concord, New Hampshire, United States

I have a long history with this company. I started as a Customer Service Rep (1996), advanced to a Terminal Manager (2004), and then was promoted to Marketing Coordinator (2004-2006). In 2008, I went back to this position for two years. During this time as the Marketing Coordinator, I designed, distributed and/or coordinated the production of all company communication and marketing materials including print and online ads, TV and radio spots, billboards, brochures, newsletters, notices, tickets, forms, gift certificates, and PowerPoint presentations. I also helped to develop and maintain three of the company's websites and increased new customer interest in the company by utilizing social media outlets such as Facebook and Twitter to generate sales revenue. I also attended trade shows and planned events to achieve this same goal.

Washington Dc-Baltimore Area

At The Washington Post, I managed ad orders to ensure correct and timely ad placement in Washington Post products, while providing service support to sales account managers and advertisers. During my time with this company, I received many accolades from the Advertising Department for providing excellent customer service support to advertisers and account representatives.
