Strategy. Storytelling. Creative Execution.
Over more than 20 years, I’ve had the opportunity to create communications across healthcare, higher education, nonprofit, arts, recreation, finance and other industries. My work spans strategy, writing, design, digital communications, websites, social media, publications, photography, video and more.
Here are a few highlights from along the way.
Publications and Print
From newsletters and program guides to brochures, event materials and promotional pieces, I’ve created print communications for a wide range of audiences and purposes. My role has included concept development, writing and editing, design, production coordination and working with designers and vendors to bring projects from idea to finished piece.

Digital Advertising & Campaigns
Digital campaigns have given me the opportunity to combine messaging, visual storytelling and audience targeting across a variety of platforms. My work has included campaign concept development, copywriting, creative development, landing pages and digital advertising.

Find Your Fun Campaign
2017 | Campaign Concept, Landing Page & Digital Advertising
Developed as an integrated awareness campaign showcasing the range of programs and activities available at the Kroc Center. I created the campaign landing page from concept through execution, using activity-based imagery and strategic links to guide visitors to relevant program information across desktop and mobile. The campaign incorporated digital advertising and retargeting through Omaha World-Herald digital properties and Google AdWords — or, as I jokingly called it at the time, “stalkertizing.”

Social Media & Content
Social media has been a consistent part of my communications work, from developing content and campaign creative to managing channels, promoting programs and events, and adapting messages for different audiences and platforms.

Website
Using Adobe Muse and a template provided by Territorial Headquarters, I and my team developed the new Kroc Center website at the beginning of 2016. It was a long process but the finished product was well worth the effort towards ensuring a mobile friendly and member/guest friendly website. I developed content, updates, text, and occasionally images for the website. I also updated links and provided general maintenance and upkeep.

Radio Ads
I was responsible for writing radio advertisements as well as sometimes providing the voice for recording the radio ads. I work with all local radio stations and have also done some advertising with Pandora.

Media Coverage
I was the media liaison and whenever media showed up at the Kroc Center it was my responsibility to meet with them and if needed do on-air interviews.

Parades
Each year the Kroc Center participated in the Cinco De Mayo parade. I was in charge of everything from reserving our spot in the parade lineup to coordinating float construction and volunteers… to carrying the banner!
