Summarize what you do in one sentence.
I currently manage direct partnerships with online publishers and ensure that we are achieving success through our campaigns given our client's objectives and overall business goals.

Why do you like working at Mindshare?
I feel like Mindshare is the type of place that constantly challenges individuals to become the best professional versions of themselves. It's a company that offers plenty of opportunities to grow and encourages people to push boundaries.

What are you known for at work?
Being the baby as I have been the youngest member on the team ever since I joined. And always having candy!

Provocation with purpose is ingrained in everything we do – how do you live by this every day?
We pride ourselves on disrupting the norm. Part of our job is to constantly challenge our clients. Last month we pushed boundaries for one of our clients by recommending they test podcast opportunities, including host reads. This was definitely an exciting opportunity for us as this was not something the brand had done before.

What is the best piece of advice you ever received?
There are two amazing outcomes when taking risks in life. One - you'll find what you want. Two - you'll find what you don't want.

If you could eat only one cuisine for the rest of your life what would it be?
Cajun Seafood

Proudest professional moment so far?
I've been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to do some pro-bono work for a non-profit company called Enactus. Their mission is to provide resources to students whose goal is to positively impact the world through their innovative ideas. I was part of a team that helped spread that positive message, and it was definitely my proudest professional moment so far.
