Oh good googly-moogly, the dreaded "About Me" section. The ultimate humble brag. On one hand, I'm supposed to tell you about what an amazing, talented writer I am. On the other, I can't pump myself up so much that I come off as a pretentious prima donna. So maybe I should just give a few highlights and we can take it from there.
For almost 10 years I've worked on big brands like Bank of America and General Motors, medium sized brands like ADT and Smithfield, as well as small brands like American Laser Skincare, Ohio Health, Walsh College and Cat's Pride.
I've worked on several winning pitches like Purell and Stanley Steemer and used my vast nerd knowledge to help shape a digital pitch to millennials for Rosetta Stone.
I've done pretty much everything under the sun, from DM and digital to outdoor and radio.
I have a Masters in Advertising from FIU and the Miami Ad School.
Ok that wasn't too painful. Hopefully, that's enough to get the conversation started.
