Content Marketer

Full Service Catalog Production | From concept to doorstep | Elevate Your Brand with Tangible Marketing

Marketing projects fall apart when no one is managing the moving pieces.

That’s where I come in.  I’m a hands-on Marketing Project Manager with 10+ years of experience leading content operations, campaign delivery, and media outreach for a major national brand. I help businesses get high-quality marketing projects out the door—on time, on brand, and on budget.

Whether you need someone to coordinate a team of creatives, produce and launch a print or digital catalog, manage day-to-day content production, or get press releases into the right hands, I can step in and take the lead.

Specialties:
– Marketing & Creative Project Management
– Content Ops & Workflow Optimization
– PR Strategy & Press Release Development
– Campaign Planning & Execution
– Creative Team Coordination (writers, designers, photographers)
– Catalog Production (Print & Digital)
– Product Photography, Copy, and Layout Oversight
– Digital Asset Management & Review Tools

I’ve produced over 4,000 pages of catalog content, coordinated thousands of product and lifestyle photos, written and distributed press releases for major product launches, and led creative teams through complex multi-channel campaigns. My work has driven measurable results—increased efficiency, lower costs, and higher revenue. But more importantly: I get sh*t done.

If you’re looking for a reliable, senior-level contributor to take charge of your marketing execution, let’s talk.
