PROJECT MANAGER
Manager of many things
"In addition to my role as project manager for the agency, I'm also a broadcast and print production manager at Remedy. My background in design gives me an edge—being able to quickly spot when something's amiss on a proof or at a press check."
New process
"I was a key player in developing a new process for utilizing nontraditional media channels. It's about being clever and finding unexpected ways to cut through and reach consumers. A lot of times it incorporates unusual tactics like podcasts or wrapping an entire building."
Working on Remedy
"I was responsible for the implementation of our agency-wide project management software system. It was pretty significant since it required the company to adopt a whole new process. But it's helped streamline several tasks—from timelines to time sheets—so we can be more efficient."
