Small business owners don't have time or money to waste on marketing that doesn't work. I focus on taking the marketing burden off my clients' backs and placing it where it belongs – with a marketing professional. It's not enough for them to work IN their business; they must also spend time working ON their business! The truth is, most business owners rarely have the time to do both – well! I help our clients properly leverage every marketing opportunity in their local market. Clients choose me for my creative solutions to problems, budget-friendly approach to marketing, attention to detail, and ability to make complex concepts easy to understand.

Yes, you read that correctly. I was a pastry chef! Mayking Cakes was a bakery that ran on relationships more than recipes. We focused mainly on the wedding industry, and our top priority was caring for our brides! We were known for both our amazing cakes and our dedication to our customers' every need. We started as a husband and wife team working part-time out of our kitchen at home and grew into a full-service bakery and coffee shop with 2 locations! As a small business owner, I learned firsthand what it takes to run a successful business. It gave me unique insights I utilize today as I work with other small businesses to help them grow.

The job consisted of two major fronts: the internal and external audio/video marketing and advertising of PBS and creating multimedia marketing campaigns for contracted PBS agents. The job required both a mastery of technical production know-how and the ability to work hand in hand with clients to produce effective marketing. PBS is where I learned to lead a team in planning, writing, production, editing, and delivery of successful advertising projects.

Responsible for ALL aspects of video production. I wrote, produced, shot, directed, and edited all of my own projects. From concept to fruition – I did it all. I was allowed the freedom to produce award-winning television that the station could be proud of. I learned what it takes to create effective advertising. I honed my skills at telling a powerful story by being limited to doing so in 30-second increments! During my tenure at KTKA, I helped build an unforgettable promotional campaign and image for the station that propelled it to win numerous production awards and the coveted Kansas Association of Broadcasters "Station of the Year" award!
