I have a degree in Fine Arts and an MBA in Marketing and Information Management. Recently, my primary focus has been on product marketing. I am passionate about marrying customer needs with product solutions.
I have experience with positioning, messaging, developing personas, launching new marketing channels, conducting product-market fit analyses, launching new products, and pricing and packaging. I am interested in further developing my digital marketing and design skills.
I have worked in the non-profit sector as well as at large public corporations, focusing on both B2B and B2C clientele. I have a background in both strategic product marketing and launch-based product marketing. I have led comprehensive brand refreshes and introduced all-new marketing channels.
Conducted a secret shop of two competitors and a positioning workshop internally to determine our strongest product-market fit. Then, developed new messaging that went through a thorough testing process. Worked with the web team to create an all-new webpage with new messaging for Website Design Services, as well as with the integrated marketing team to create a complementary explainer video. As shown here, as Product Marketer at GoDaddy.
Lead project manager for a brand refresh at Western Digital as Product Marketer. Required working cross-functionally and internationally with integrated marketing to develop the new designs, then introduce to several teams' decision makers, and subsequently updating all product packaging, labeling, and online and printed marketing material to reflect the new brand, coaching all cross-functional teams and vendors to use the new branding materials. Highly complex project that required a strong attention to detail, persuasive presentation skills, and cross-functional management. Go here to view the portfolio of re-branded products.
Created new messaging for the WD Green SN350 NVMe, an all-new product that introduced NVMe technology into the WD Green product line. Go here to view the webpage.
