I am truly a child of the web generation. From editing the HTML of my GeoCities website (via dial-up connection) to
convincing my summer camp friends to start livejournals so we could stay in touch all year. From the early days of
Facebook (my school was one of the first to get access) to advocating for Twitter before it was cool - I’ve always been a
social media pioneer (ok, call me a hipster). Understanding the digital web inside and out, paired with my degree in
Journalism, has led me to a successful 10 year career as a digital marketing professional.
I would never call myself a digital media expert; I don’t think that anyone can. That’s one of the things I love most
about this field - much like fashion, it is always changing and reinventing itself, always searching for a new approach,
a new innovator or rising star. In the years I’ve spent online - both personally and professionally - I have learned many
valuable lessons on how to leverage digital media. I’ve learned to push boundaries and discover new ways to make the
Internet a successful personal and enterprise-level platform.
