Ansira is a platform company with proprietary website, media, and channel partner marketing technology. As Ansira’s EVP, Media, I am responsible for driving operational excellence in Ansira's media practice, providing media thought leadership to clients and teams, and partnering with Product on the company's adtech roadmap.I have extensive media background, serving most recently as Chief Operations Officer at Pinnacle Advertising. There I led a combined media team that planned, bought, optimized, and analyzed across all media channels. I have automotive and non-automotive client experience, supporting clients like Honda, Gander Outdoors, Garrett Popcorn Shops, and WeatherTech. I graduated from Lewis University where I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Broadcast Journalism and Broadcast Marketing. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time gardening on my small ranch outside of Chicago (with my 17 chickens and 2 rescue dogs). I’m also an avid traveler and bourbon enthusiast and tend to cook very generous meals for my house guests.
