Director, Digital Marketing
CurrentAs director of digital marketing at The Washington Center, I lead the marketing strategy for two fellowship programs funded by the U.S. Department of State: Foreign Affairs Information Technology Fellowship and Clarke DS Fellowship. These two-year fellowship programs provide academic funding for undergraduate and graduate students, internships, and professional development. They are designed to attract minority groups underrepresented in the Foreign Service. Audiences include university advisors, faculty and staff, undergraduate college students and entering graduate students. Accomplishments include:• Create and implement an integrated content marketing and digital strategy that has resulted in a four-fold increase in qualified applicants for the FAIT Fellowship program. • Develop and manage two new websites using SEO best practice, launch social media accounts, and manage the content strategy. • Create content to build awareness and engage audiences through blog articles, videos, webinars, e-books, infographics and social media. • Use Hubspot to manage lead generation forms, organic social media promotions, email promotions, online interest forms, chatbot and more. • Manage university and organization outreach activities, including in-person and virtual career fairs, organization-sponsored webinars, and virtual info sessions.• Develop and manage all organic and paid social media marketing, Google Ads, third-party digital and online advertising, and email campaigns.
