I'm offering
My 15 years of experience has provided me with a well-rounded insight into all facets of marketing. I am a creative thinker and problem solver, adaptive and a great communicator. I have excelled at account management with proven relationship building skills (leading our companies biggest accounts including Warner Bros. and Sony Pictures). I love collaborating both within my small team and through the hundreds of diverse cross category partnerships I have effectively negotiated, developed and delivered.
