ABOUT ME

We sold our restaurant in 2022 in addition to our home in Austin, Texas. Moving to East Texas has been full of change and surprise. Everything is different here - from the soil to the landscape. But we have made it our home with intentions to stay, remodel our 1950s home, and enjoy life before grandchildren enter the world. 

Having new motivations and support from my husband, I made the decision to reenter the workforce and let go of my entrepreneurial endeavors. It has been a joyful and successful ride, and now it's time to start a new chapter. Obtaining my PMP certification has always been a dream and I am proud to say that I passed the exam in October, 2024. 

I am eager to put my new and experience skills to work with a great company, association, or firm - just as long as the mission and goals align with my personal values. I believe we all have the ability to make big things happen. 

Hello! My journey in marketing began before the advent of social media. Yes, I am a proud Gen X. I honed my skills in creating websites, newsletters, and email campaigns for trade associations and corporations. In 2018, I took a leap of faith and opened The Other Day Marketing, a creative firm that helps women business owners understand the importance of branding and having a strong marketing strategy. 

My expertise spans design and brand management. I have a background in successful campaign execution through various marketing channels, including email, social media, and print. My partner and I owned and operated a successful restaurant in the Texas Hill Country; this experience provided me with firsthand knowledge of the challenges faced by business owners and the need for a strategic plan to enter and exit as an entrepreneur.
