Bio
I would describe myself as someone who "propels with purpose," in that, over the course of my career, I've helped organizations and individuals move from information to action by distilling disparate, complex information into clear, compelling and relevant communications and messages to deliver measurable business results.
At Citi, I'm part marketer, part publisher and part journalist. As a marketer, I lead social media and content marketing for Citi's consumer businesses in the US, integrating paid, owned and earned tactics to support servicing, listening and engagement strategies.
I am a prolific writer, blogger and speaker on topics such as personal finance, entrepreneurship, career and leadership, which is where my journalist role comes into play. In addition to writing for Women & Co., I am a member of LinkedIn's Influencer program and a contributor to Manilla.com and the Huffington Post. I've been featured in print, broadcast and online media, including Smart Money, American Banker, Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Yahoo! Finance, The Street, More, Redbook, Woman's Day, and Good Housekeeping, among others.
I'm passionate about community service and, at present, I serve on the Board of Directors of the Girl Scouts of the U.S.A., Director's Council of the Penn Museum, and the national board of Step Up Women's Network. I also serve on the advisory boards of Fab&Fru and Generations. I am a member of Advertising Women of New York, Financial Women's Association of New York, and president-elect of New York Women in Communications.
