(Er, you know what she means.) Can Syd break into a new career, save a hometown friend from a downward spiral, and even solve the case of a handsome mystery man who never seems more than two steps away?With a pair of red-soled pumps, a vodka martini, and her sisterhood of Sirens, she might just pull it off.

Crafted strategic rebrand and modern identity for Matthew Christopher in 2015. This allowed us to run a targeted PR campaign that landed the company editorial features in top bridal magazines. During my tenure at MC I have been able to redefine this typically bridal brand and place it on prestigious red carpet events including the Emmy Awards, Tony Awards and Espy Awards creating celebrity partnerships. I also implemented a strong, unique voice for the company across all social media platforms, which rivaled the top spot among their competitors and tripled their social following in 2 years. Produced photo shoot campaigns and runway shows. Produced photo shoots and runway shows for ad campaigns, look books and New York Bridal Fashion Week.

Using years of professional experience in the fitness industry, I was able to lead the company's marketing team and establish a unified social presence for the brand on all channels. Much of my work resulted in having a direct effect on their print and advertising campaigns for the year. I adapted a strong program of ambassadors within the gym by using their own personal training staff. This was not only a new tactic for the company but proved to gain the company traction with people inside and outside of their eco-system, resulting in a strong return on investment.

As a host of the The Ultimate Coyote Ugly Search, which aired on the Country Music Television and later on VH1, I worked on a nationwide marketing plan to on-board new talent and open a series of establishments across the nation.
