- Marketing strategist with background in improv (ComedySportz San Jose), sketch, and stand-up. Use all skills to develop creative, fun, humorous content for clients' marketing materials and messaging strategies. I also facilitate workshops on innovation and creativity for clients wanting to create fresh, new customer experiences, products, and services. I spent many years in corporate marketing, so it's great to use applied improv to help companies think about innovation in really different ways. Also fortunate to be using fun and humor in developing social media strategies for clients - a growing area of my marketing business. Teach graduate (MBA) marketing courses, and am founding fellow of SNCR.org, Society for New Communications Research, a think tank focusing on best practices in new media.
