About
With 7+ years in digital advertising, I've honed my skills in the Paid Search/ SEM arena developing high-level strategy, diving deep in the optimization weeds and also supervising and training entry-level associates. I've worked closely with online managers of large and small scale e-comm and lead gen companies to develop media strategies tailored to their specific business needs and goals. Not only do I enjoy working closely with my clients but also with my coworkers to learn different skill sets and also put forth cohesive, integrated, successful media plans. Hands on experience with AdWords, Bing Ads, Google Analytics, Google Merchant Center, Doubleclick Search, Coremetrics, Omniture, and Exact Target.
