I began my marketing career as graphic designer while a student at Texas A&M. I began by working for several Student Organizations, apprenticed at the MSC Print Shop and also worked at the Grove Outdoor Theater on campus. After college, I moved to New York City and have worked in Advertising, Public Relations and Marketing eventually rising to become a Vice President/Creative Director for a global Public Relations agency. Over my career, I worked with brands such as Yoo-Hoo Chocolate Drink, New York Zoo, Walmart, Colgate, American Express, Mastercard, Cover Girl, American Girl Dolls, Don Julio Tequila, Payless Shoes, ADP, Chicago the Musical, and many corporate and healthcare related companies over 23 years. I moved back to College Station to be close to family and spent 10 years working as Director of Marketing & Communications for the University Libraries before joining the School of Education & Human Development in Spring of 2022.
