About Me

As a 20-something Social Media Enthusiast, my biggest passions are communicating and connecting. As having been both a constituent and a brand representative, in addition to my 10 years of customer service experience (from retail to clients to vendors), I am a natural conversation driver.

As social media and how we communicate with the world change rapidly, my passion hasn't wavered. In the past 2 years, I've shifted from my administrative/associate/legal aid focused positions to one in digital marketing using my growing professional network, mainly via Twitter & LinkedIn.

After gaining experience with pro-bono projects, and internships, I'm now a full-time digital
