Concurrent with my role as president of College Parents of America, I was management supervisor at LM&O Advertising, where I led a staff of 17 in running the mid-Atlantic region's biggest advertising account - the National Guard. With my stellar account team and in partnership with the agency's creative department, I worked to fulfill the recruitment and retention needs of the Citizen-Soldier force, with billings of $90 million per year, and diverse programs in print, online, direct marketing, TV, radio, movie theaters and event venues.

My decade at Discovery was an amazing ride. As the company became the world's most respected media brand, I built a corporate communications team to match. We launched new networks in the U.S. and around the world, along with new business lines to complement the on-air product. During this time frame, I also served as an officer and then president of the Cable Television Public Affairs Association.

As one of the earliest employees of CNBC, I created the corporate communications function for NBC's first venture into cable TV. I negotiated the initial arrangement for the network to broadcast from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, and I set up the initial rules of engagement for CNBC talent to be utilized on NBC News programs. Now commonplace, this was then thought impossible to achieve.

In this role, I held principal responsibility for promoting NBC News programming produced out of Washington, DC, including American Almanac, 1986 (which was the real name of a show and did not become 1987) and Meet the Press.

I organized the cable portion of the Television Critics' Association (TCA) tours, and also handled PR for The ACE Awards, cable's highest programming honors.
