David&Goliath

Client: Kia USA

I decided to join David&Goliath for three reasons: to work at such a creatively-infused boutique agency, to work on a dynamic and fresh account and to further my career and focus it back on the digital space. My time on Kia Motors supported those three reasons and my day to day involved working with passionate and interesting folks, both on the agency and client sides, on campaigns that ranged in target demos as diverse as the vehicle lineup, complete with dancing hamsters. I managed display advertising and social media influencer programs for the vibrant and youthful Kia Soul and Kia Rio launches and the family-friendly Kia Sorento and Kia Sedona launches. The programs included the production and launches of websites, microsites, rich media, flash and dynamic banners, mobile units, custom builds, branded games and sponsored content. 

Besides the growth and experience I gained while working at D&G, I learned first hand the importance of having a vibrant agency culture and how it influences great work as a result.

Assistant Account Executive | Apple

Merkley + Partners

Clients: Tic Tac, Nutella, AXA Financial, Mercedes Benz USA

Merkley + Partners was my very first exposure to advertising and more significantly, to the digital space. It was a very important part of my career and will be a time that I'll appreciate for the rest of my professional life. While I was at the agency, I reported to an account supervisor and a management supervisor. Because the digital team was lean, we divided and conquered most digital programs. These included the production and maintenance of websites, microsites, rich media, flash banners, email blasts and custom builds like games and homepage takeovers. I helped generate website competitive audits for pitch presentations, briefed creative teams on interactive and digital projects and managed the process between production teams, media teams, clients' interactive departments and vendors.
