Digital Marketing Expert: Project Management & Marketing Operations Specialist
Hi - nice to e-meet you! I've been working in marketing for over a decade and have project managed any type of marketing initiative you could throw at me. Experiential, Lifecycle, SEO, Content Development, Social Media, Emails/SMS, Digital, OOH. You name it, I've led a project on it. My bread-and-butter is clear, actionable communication. Between clients, creatives, tech and anyone in between. I work cross-functionally and understand human dynamics; pulling the best out of teams and getting everyone aligned - clearly articulating marching orders for everyone involved. Slowing down for speedbumps, and reassessing roadblocks. One Client, after finding out I was a collegiate lacrosse captain, said, "That makes sense for you, I guess once a captain always a captain!" This team mindset it how I run projects. We are all working towards the same goal, and my job as a Project Manager is to get us to the finish line effectively, efficiently, while still smiling at the end of it.

Projects

Chemours | The World Needs F-gases

Chemours hired me to support their Global Communications Team to develop a first-of-its kind Global Advocacy campaign driving home the criticality of fluorinated refrigerant technologies. Within this project, I not only took a standard project manager role of communicating timelines, gathering feedback and tracking project process for the Clients - I also took a strategic role in providing messaging and design feedback for the agency team. Ultimately, the Clients trusted my thought-process to be the first line of feedback to get the campaign where it needed to go before sending it to higher level stakeholders for approval. After one year working with this client to deliver The World Needs F-gases global campaign and reporting on over 400M impressions and improving fluorinated gas digital sentiment by 24%, the clients asked me to step up and take on more. With this new role - I developed and owned content for the Opteon brand social media account, owned two (2) global newsletters, drafted marketing fact sheets, launched 10 webinars and dozens of email campaigns. Within this contract, I was able to flex all of my marketing skills and be a catch-all solution for the Chemours clients to take on whatever marketing support they needed at a lower rate than hiring an entire agency team.See More
