With over 35 years of experience in marketing, my career has spanned a range of industries and roles, giving me a unique and comprehensive perspective. I began in the hospitality industry, where I developed a deep understanding of customer experience and brand positioning. My legal training sharpened my analytical thinking, which proved valuable as I transitioned into recruitment—connecting people and businesses through strategic messaging. As a business owner, I’ve been directly involved in every facet of operations, including marketing, sales, and promotions. This hands-on experience has given me a solid understanding of what drives business growth from the inside out. I’ve continued to evolve professionally, working in real estate—where I remain active—and most recently as a digital marketing specialist, combining decades of traditional marketing insight with modern, data-driven strategies. My diverse background allows me to approach marketing with both creativity and strategy, rooted in real-world business experience and a deep understanding of audience engagement.
