My media kit provides a background on my experience and contracted / freelance services I offer as well as a rate sheet for all creative and virtual assistant / administrative deliverables.
I created the social media program, policies and training at Uponor (beginning in 2008-2009), and also managed the content strategy, messaging and execution for many years.
When Uponor grew and created a digital marketing team, I trained the team members and passed responsibilities over to them. However, I remained as a consultant and created social media content for strategic initiatives. I also attended the annual Social Media Marketing World Conference for several years to learn from the leading digital marketers.
You can refer to my travel and lifestyle blog social media accounts for some insight on my social media content.
In exchange for honest book reviews, public relations and media agencies send me complimentary advanced reader copies (ARCs) to read before they are published. Although it is not expected, the editor in me will also highlight any typos or content errors.
