I am the Founder and CEO of Avenue, a B Corp digital and social media marketing agency for purpose-driven companies. Our proprietary suite of marketing products and custom services help brands and businesses of all sizes grow sustainably and successfully. As a Certified B Corporation®, Avenue is proud to be part of a global movement of people using business as a force for good. We believe B Corps are redefining success in business and inspiring businesses to not only be the best in the world, but to be the best for the world.
Prior to founding Avenue, I held a variety of executive leadership roles at digital and full-service agencies. During that time, I helped build a startup agency from the ground up to over $1M in revenue and facilitated its merger with a larger agency. Over the past 15 years, my responsibilities have spanned business management, executive leadership, marketing agency operations, sales, client services, talent recruitment, mentorship and public speaking.
I am passionate about having a meaningful impact on our community through volunteerism and board service. I currently serve on the Statewide Board of Directors for SMART Reading as Immediate Past Chair, as Board Member and Chair Elect for B Local PDX, on the EO (Entrepreneurs' Organization) Board as Accelerator Chair, and as the Immediate Past President, Secretary and Charity of Choice Chair on the Board of Directors for SEMpdx (Search Engine Marketing Professionals of Portland). I have previously served as a Board Member and Nominations Chair for Business for a Better Portland (BBPDX).
