Questions & Answers

What do you do for fun?

Traveling and learning about new places and cultures brings me joy. I'm happiest biking or hiking and enjoy the outdoors.  I'm a foodie who loves to cook as well as a good microbrew.

What are your long-term goals?
I'm a life-long learner, who continues to apply ongoing knowledge to help colleagues and patients embrace value-driven, personalized marketing that delivers great customer experience. I'm currently working to apply behavioral health and design thinking principals in my daily work.
What are you working on right now?

I'm on the Board of Directors responsible for Membership & Engagement for the local chapter of the Healthcare Businesswomen's Association. I've also mentored through their leadership development program, and served on the Marketing and Communications Committee.

It's important to pay it forward.

What's the most important question you can ask?

This is really a two-part question. It's essential to start by asking "Why?" If you aren't clear on why you are doing something, it's hard to develop an effective strategy to achieve your objectives. That's why creative briefs are so important. Simon Sinek explains how great leaders inspire others to take action in his bestseller, "Start With Why."  


But also critical to ask is "How?"  You need to be clear at the start of a project or campaign, how you are going to measure the success of your business objective and set those KPIs upfront.  Then you can figure out if your program is really working, how to optimize it and make the decision to continue or stop it.

How did you choose your profession?

My professions chose me. By applying previous marketing and communications skills with evolving technology, I've worked across industries and roles. I learned digital and mobile marketing, social media, analytics, content marketing, and customer experience. I love the digital/

omnichannel world because you never stop learning.
