At my core, I am a people person. Currently sales and the Director of Marketing at a fast growing, high-end, white-glove, general contractor in New York City, my responsibilities are varied. I am an excellent networker and open doors to new opportunities for the company. I am passionate about not only bringing in profitable contacts but also forming lasting relationships. I look at my clients as friends and colleagues and endeavor to tighten the architectural and design community through marketing, events, sponsorships, and ultimately referrals. I enjoy meeting new architects and designers, learning about their varied approaches, and matching both their aesthetic and personality to clients in need.
I have been with my current company for several years and contributed to its growth. This started with re-branding and an aggressive organic marketing campaign. Through social media, archival and portfolio management, newsletters, catalog and print production, digital video production, website development, and industry interviews. I marketed my company to both industry and home owners with great success.
A certified English teacher, my written and verbal communications skills are top notch. I work well on teams and independently, am driven, hardworking and an asset to a variety of roles. Ultimately I seek to broaden my horizons and understanding of architecture and design, and would be an asset in any business development position.
