As a marketer, I know you have a variety of needs that require a wide range of skills.

You need a partner, planner and designer.

Many of your projects and campaigns may involve outside vendors and require a designer who can project manage and minimize costs. I see my role as providing excellent partnership, planning and design to you—as well as liaising with the vendors to ensure the finished product is as good as the planning and design that went into it.

To achieve the best outcome possible for each initiative, I ask questions like: What does success look like for this campaign? Who is the audience? How will this piece be distributed? What is your budget?

From our discussion, we identify goals, project specs and any outside resources needed to reach the finish line. Every single project is executed with timelines, clarity and budget at the forefront via my super organized process of working together.

Do you value clarity, consistency, and a team-player approach?

That's my speciality
