Content Marketing Matters
Content has the potential to create emotional connections, build communities, and drive change — but only if you have a proven content manager who knows how to deliver content where, when, and how it will make the most impact.
That takes someone with experience, expertise, and education. Someone like me.
My writing and leadership capabilities were forged in the newsroom, where deadlines are non-negotiable and accuracy is essential. Earning two master’s degrees — an MBA and a Master of Science in Marketing — has taught me to harmonize content marketing with the larger marketing function and other business operations.
