### Strategic Planning, Marketing, Advertising, and Exhibit Design ExpertiseWith over 25 years in management, I have cultivated a strategic and focused approach that has led to the development and execution of innovative marketing strategies with substantial financial returns. My work encompasses strategic planning, from initial concept development to the creation of effective advertising campaigns and thoughtful media placements that achieve desired results.I have been privileged to serve on numerous community boards and have been honored with local and national awards in community service and advertising.In addition to my marketing experience, I founded FLEXHIBIT, an international exhibit design and manufacturing firm specializing in interactive, hands-on exhibits that promote STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) education. These exhibits are designed to engage visitors of all ages, enriching their learning experience. My background in strategic planning has been beneficial in helping educational centers develop their vision for impactful exhibits.Additionally, I co-founded Safety Net, a non-profit organization that supports foster youth aging out of the foster care system in Spokane and Kootenai County. This initiative reflects my commitment to making a positive difference in the community by providing essential support to vulnerable young individuals.
