I work as a marketing manager who takes on a wide variety of projects across departments. I oversee a variety of projects using tools to track timelines, assign tasks, and organize priorities. I lead end-to-end digital marketing initiatives, overseeing the full project lifecycle from initial strategic brief through multi-stakeholder revisions to final delivery. Many of my projects involve discovering or learning new platforms and systems in a short timeline. As a resourceful generalist, I have a proven track record of rapidly mastering new platforms and systems while staying within budget. I also oversee digital media creation, trade shows, web design, and email marketing.
Currently, I am organizing and planning a major website overhaul. I set up the entire website and handle the day-to-day maintenance. I have a background with some design in it. I am competitive with SEO and like to get in the weeds with analytics. I have led SEO and GEO growth for 5 years and have increased web traffic and brand awareness in my market.
Board games, TTRPGs, and music are lifelong interests of mine. My shelves are packed with games and books, and I agonize over which ones get sent to storage. I am out playing tabletop roleplaying games about 3-4 nights out of the week. I nerd out at game conventions both as a gamer and as a marketing manager. I also enjoy any opportunity to network with people in the industry and play games. Moreover my wife and I are writing a few adventure books together.
