Wrote, created, and managed landing page content and marketing content for a hotel booking platform start-up. Worked directly with partners, such as Sundance World Filmfestival, Liftopia, KSL, and Alta Ski Area, to create custom booking platforms for their websites. Was the project manager for the building of two new client's booking engines: Liftopia and Hotel Association of New York City, both which had over 300 hotel pages that needed to be created. Managed the StayParkCity.com social channels, including Instagram, Facebook, Blog, Website, SEO pages, and email campaigns. The SEO pages I have helped create are directly attributed to 40% of our organic bookings.

I develop and find content across all of the social channels that Ragnar owns including the blog, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat and YouTube. While in the office, I write long form blog posts for both the Trail and Road race blogs on inspirational runner stories, race course previews and other "only at Ragnar" content, work with partnership to build out sponsored social posts and coordinate our online contests. While at races, I take photos and write copy while following the race, look for shareable moments and tell the inspirational stories happening along the course.

I was part of a three-person marketing team that handled both the physical and digital marketing for the Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon, the LA BIG 5K and the Olympic Trials.
