Summary

Results-driven Multimedia Content Professional with a proven track record of developing and implementing content strategies that drive demand and conversion among targeted audiences. Reporting directly to the Chief Marketing Officer, I have successfully led the Marketing & Communications Content Team in developing, editing, and overseeing integrated content for United Way across a wide range of channels, including press releases, advertising, digital media, and more.


My role extends beyond content creation to encompass the strategic vision required to maintain brand consistency and identity across all communications. I have spearheaded efforts to integrate content architecture, campaigns, influencers, and regional marketing initiatives seamlessly, ensuring a unified brand presence.


In addition to overseeing content creation, I have directed public relations efforts through an earned media strategy, leveraging my expertise in building and managing systems and processes to consistently produce and disseminate high-quality work. My leadership extends to managing a skilled content team and a network of freelance writers, videographers, and designers, fostering a culture of excellence and collaboration.
