Hey, I'm Amanda! 

You probably want to look at my work.

That's cool.

But, sit tight, let's break the ice a little. 

I am a seasoned Marketing and Communications Consultant, with ten years of experience in strategic communications and integrated marketing. I am a passionate leader with a proven track record for translating complex ideas into successful public engagement campaigns. I focus on developing and implementing key marketing and public relations strategies, creating and disseminating various print and multimedia materials, social media development and outreach, branding development, public engagement, graphic design and supporting initiatives through special events and stakeholder management. I’ve managed and motivated interdisciplinary teams, both as official in-house go-to gal and an agency project manager. 

I am responsible for brand management, design, marketing and communications through all forms of outreach for my clients. My work has included planning and executing various public awareness campaigns, managing marketing programs for public agencies, design and development of branding, development and execution of social media outreach, creating engaging advertising campaigns and statewide community building and partnership development. 

I excel at internal communications, ensuring organizations speak with a consistent voice and that internal staff and external audiences understand an agency’s brand promise. I posses excellent leadership skills with the ability to serve as a unifying force and position communications discussions at both the strategic and tactical levels. And I have also been known to write a lines of killer copy. 

I previously worked for D&A Communications, a full service marketing and communications firm dedicated to working with public agencies. I also worked for Visit California, marketing all of California as a premier tourism destination, where I developed social media, communications and marketing programs for the California Welcome Centers and managed international and domestic PR campaigns for the state marketing agency.
