While managing B2B communications for the Americas region of iptiQ, the organization transitioned from startup mode to a mature entity.

In July 2019 I took a leap of faith and formed a business partnership with a like-minded friend. Together we formed Zen Revolution and purchased Divine Yoga and two studio locations. Zen Revolution is a a small business with big goals to bring community together through movement and wellness. In 2020 we made the difficult, but strategic decision to permanently close one location as part of our business continuity plan and refocused all efforts into our home-base. After a four month mandated state closure, we re-opened our doors during the phase III pandemic response and maintained a 93% class utilization.

In July 2020, Esurance employees transitioned to Allstate employees and I became a lead communications consultant, supporting the Direct Distribution organization. I help leaders communicate the mission, goal and priorities and help employees realize how the work they do every day makes a difference to our customers and contributes to our goals.

I was recruited to Esurance and promoted to senior communications consultant where I supported enterprise-wide initiatives, transformed the internal communication strategy for two internal newsletters and managed leadership visibility plans. I assisted with the business continuity plan to transition 90% of the workforce home in under two weeks during the onset of the pandemic stay at home orders. In July 2020 the Esurance brand officially transitioned to an Allstate company. My final project before transitioning to an Allstate employee was to help associates navigate the change.

I was promoted from associate consultant to consultant because of the close relationships built with executive leaders throughout my years at Liberty. Instead of supporting communication plans, I began to lead and bring life to plans. I worked directly with the Claims senior leaders on initiatives to improve engagement scores, navigate organizational redesign and change, and increase open and honest communication efforts.

I joined Liberty Mutual with the goal to expand my skill set within a new industry. I was responsible for sourcing news, creation, editing, design and distribution of two individual monthly newsletters with open rates greater than 82 percent.
