Long Beach, California, United States

Having been recruited by the executive managers of InterTrend to establish the agency’s presence in Asian American markets from the ground up, I met and exceeded goals by devising and implementing a comprehensive long-term plan covering finance, human resources, new business development and corporate expansion. I aligned internal and external clients in integrated initiatives, managed a $30M budget, oversaw key accounts and consistently secured a 25% incremental budget for accounts through strategic media planning. During my tenure with InterTrend, I attained significant ROMIs, including 2.0 for Chase and elevating State Farm to rank #2 in unaided brand awareness.

Oversaw the key Volvo account, conceptualizing, creating and delivering advertising results and aligning corporate strategies with local dealership initiatives. I provided insights into market values, lifestyles and psychographics for Asian consumers and created, wrote, and presented agency points-of-view and responses.

Developed engagement concepts, content and events to expand the high-end Asian American market. Focusing on lifestyle and entertainment trends, I helped positioned brands, including Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep, strongly for long-term visibility and growth by identifying key influencers in their target markets and designing and implementing social media campaigns to evolve their brand narratives to communicate compelling context, continuity, and future focus as transformative force multipliers.
