I am an accomplished and results-driven marketing leader with over 35 years of experience delivering revenue growth and return on investment in the digital media, publicity, and advertising industries. Over the course of my career, I’ve developed extensive experience on both the agency and the client sides of the marketing industry, and have a deep understanding of the creative process. With my broad background across a variety of industries, I bring a unique perspective and distinct advantage to helping my clients envision, architect, and implement creative solutions to meet their marketing needs. My clients routinely report high levels of satisfaction that generate retention, loyalty, bottom-line profits, and referral income. My philosophy is that the marketing process is similar to a car: a fine-tuned machine is reliant on multiple parts, working together to get you where you want to go. Throughout my career, I’ve remained passionate about the work I do because I don’t just like the creative process, I love it. Having the opportunity to work on new projects and digging deep to understand and translate the client vision into actionable strategies that deliver results makes my day. As a former college athlete, I thrive when embracing a competitive challenge and delivering against a tight timeline. I bring a winning approach to building and nurturing successful teams based on talent, respect, and clear communication. I believe in fostering positivity, inclusion, and belonging, all of which instill a healthy environment to grow and succeed.There is always something new to be learned. As technology changes and our culture evolves, an open mind and heart are essential. Learning from failure is just as important to me as celebrating success. A quote from one of my early mentors is my mantra: “There is always time to do it over, let’s try our best do it right the first time!” Outside of work, family is important to me, as well as giving back to our community. The charitable organizations we support go hand in hand with both, such as Children’s Hospital Los Angeles and the Meadowlark Service League. From speaking at fundraising events, to the back end efforts needed to put on a food and wine festival, my daughters and I enjoy knowing our work will make a difference.
