How'd you get here
After gaining experience as a data analyst, e-commerce manager, and network administrator, I made the leap to my first job in advertising as a digital producer. This was a game-changer, as I was now working with multiple clients, each with their own unique challenges, and was part of a team creating amazing work. I took on various roles and gained experience at some of the biggest ad agencies in the DC-Baltimore area. In 2011, I joined Widmeyer Communications, which later became part of FINN Partners. At FINN, I have been able to lead, innovate, grow, and do what I love most – solve problems.
