Experienced Marketing Professional

Background
I'm a motivated and creative professional whose “Can-Do” attitude and years of multi-faceted B2B2C experience provide a long-standing record in marketing, strategy and analysis, eCommerce, and product launches. I am a strong leader, a respected manager, and I work well overseeing a team or managing my own projects. I truly take pleasure in multi-tasking effectively and I have strong organizational and interpersonal skills: traits necessary for working in fast-paced environments. Accomplished in both written and verbal communications with B2B customers, end consumers, and internal departments. I was born and raised in Southern California and received my degree at Cal State University Northridge. I have resided in the Santa Clarita Valley with my husband for over 22 years where we've raised our two sons. I love skiing, camping, gardening, and any time with my family.
