Hi! I'm a digital native that brings an innovative focus to my many passions, projects, and professional roles. I'm the founder of Proxima, where we help clients strategically integrate digital media and innovation into their marketing efforts. We're here to help, from deciding what to do to move the needle to making it a reality through tactical execution. Branding, marketing campaign planning, digital ads, audio and video production and social media are my specialties. We'll help define your story, build the assets to tell it, and identify the audience and networks to put it into the world.I'm also an urban advocate and outspoken civic leader, taking a no-nonsense approach to improving the quality of life for Kansas City’s citizens and visitors. I love to explore cool new ideas, travel, and eat pizza.Speaking Engagements:Business Communicators Summit - International Association of Business Communicators, February 2019American Public Works Association Annual Conference, August 2018Starland News Innovation Exchange, April 2017Kansas City Public Relations Society of America, March 2016National Association of Insurance Commissioners, October 2015Dreamforce: San Francisco, November 2013Kansas City Direct Marketing Association: Kansas City, September 2013Expion User Conference: Raleigh, September 2013Social Media Club Pro: Kansas City, August 2013Kansas City International Association of Business Communicators: Kansas City, August 2013Destination Marketing Association International: Orlando, July 2013Word of Mouth Marketing Association WOMM-U, Chicago, May 22, 2013Social Media Strategies Summit, Minneapolis, Oct 3, 2012Social Media Club, Kansas City, Sep 7, 2012Social Customer: Chicago, June 24, 2011Cloudforce: Atlanta, May 19, 2011SOCAP National Convention: San Francisco, Oct 2010
