In My Own Words
I pride myself on being a motivated, ambitious, goal-oriented leader. Through strategic planning , I have successfully created and executed social media, marketing and public relations strategies for non-profit cultural arts organizations. I use various marketing initiatives and strategies to favorably position and brand the museum and its programs, and to facilitate audience and visitor growth in support of the museum’s mission and goals. I have secured media coverage of the museum's exhibitions, public programs, fundraising activities, and other important events. I have a strong background in management and am continuing my development of public relations strategies and brand identity. My goal is to provide a platform for artists as a means of of civic empowerment, community organization and development, activism, and education. I have a passion for community arts and it shows in my work ethic.
