I work as Senior Social Media and Digital Marketing Specialist for Asbury Automotive. I regularly post to social media outlets, create Facebook ads, handle reputation management, and maintain and optimize local SEO presence of all dealerships and accounts. In addition, I am also currently the Blog Administrator for the travel website, TheMouseForLess.com. I create informative articles, manage other bloggers, and promote articles via social media to increase web traffic. I also manage TheMouseForLess.com's website content, editing pages and increasing SEO value. At the Hyatt Regency Albuquerque, I spearheaded the introduction of the Social Media Coordinator, where I created unique content and tracked performance of all social postings. I also established a marketing plan to further advance the company’s social media presence, as well as helped to increase hotel revenue. Growing up, I worked for my family at their photography business, Rick Niblett Photography. Here I was able to grow my outstanding customer service skills. In addition, I gained years of administrative skills, including answering phones, scheduling clients, preparing documents, and processing orders. I also worked as a photojournalistic photographer and talked with prospective clients at expos and trade shows. I graduated in 2006 from Southern Illinois University with a major in Mass Communications and minor in Public Relations. I was on the Dean's List for all four years, and I graduated Magna Cum Laude. In my spare time, I am a travel podcaster, as a co-host of the "Be Our Guest Podcast."​ I also have my own travel blog called, "A Disney World After All." I am always seeking to combine my passions with my experience. Connect with me!
