About Me
For the past 10 years, I’ve worked in progressively senior marketing and communications roles at Harvard Business School, the Appalachian Mountain Club, the Initiative for a Competitive Inner City, and Duke University.
I have a strong background as an all-around marketer with deep experience in email marketing, program management, campaign direction, and content strategy and creation. In 2023, I was invited to share my expertise with peers at the UNH Digital Marketing Conference.
As a freelancer, I’ve worked with small businesses and nonprofits, including Social Finance, The Trustees, and the North Shore Children’s Museum, to drive projects and create digital content that meets organizations’ shared goals.
I started my career as a lab assistant for a water quality research lab, where my favorite part was the field work. Taking water samples from alpine lakes, in negative temperatures, or in pouring rain? Sign me up.
My brief stint as a scientist led me to grad school, where I studied the policy side of the scientific issues my lab had been researching. This work left me with a strong understanding of data - what it means, what’s significant, and what to look for. This, along with my strong writing skills and subject matter knowledge, have helped to drive nearly a decade of success in nonprofit marketing and communications.
After living in something like 13 cities in 4 states over the past 15 years, I now live in an old house in Salem, MA, with my husband and daughter. I’m a runner, paddler, skier, hiker, and biker. Since my daughter was born, I’ve developed a new hobby of hauling an increasingly heavy, increasingly chatty little buddy up mountains - she’s already bagged a few of NH’s 4,000-Footers, and now that she’s topped 35 pounds, we won’t be attempting another one with her until she can do it on her own two feet.
I have an M.A. in Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning and a graduate certificate in Water: Systems, Science and Society from Tufts University and a B.A. in English and a B.S. in Environmental Conservation from the University of New Hampshire.
