Summary

Through the limited real-life experience I do have in the marketing industry, I have found a real passion for brand affinity and generating content to support brands that I believe in. From a Retail Marketing Internship at Columbia Sportswear, to Social Media Manager for my college's record label, I have developed skills and honed in the craft of not only content creation, but the organization and analytical awareness that comes along with it.
