Knows social. As in; what works and what doesn't. What’s in and what’s out. What’s responsible and what’s a waste of money. With her deep ties to the media underworld, planning, hosting and posting, including management of any social or experiential event, is no stress to her. She’s a planner, a writer, a judge between good and bad content. If she wasn’t on our team, we’d be in deep trouble.
