I live, sleep, and breathe writing creative content and marketing because it drives me creatively and allows me to express my enthusiasm for beautiful design. Two years ago, I launched Asheville Date Night Guide as a passion project to inspire couples, families, and friends to share ideas for how to make a clean break from everyday monotonous routines, make new connections, discover new things about themselves, and about each other. Personal growth happens when people are pushed outside their comfort zones and I am determined to arouse this in everyone that is listening.
ADNG has also allowed me to consistently improve my writing skills at lightning speed, advance my photography skills, and market local businesses connecting them to people all around the globe. Launched in 2017, ADNG is bringing locals and visitors ideas for what to do, where to eat, and drink in Western North Carolina. Through determination and persistence for growing ADNG, in under two years, I have built our social media channels to more than 16k+ followers, am currently reaching 10 – 12k unique readers a month with over 100k annual pageviews, and maintain over 4k newsletter subscribers.
In my current role, I take the lead as part of a marketing duo on events, blog posts, email communications, and social media. This role also allows me the opportunity to work with the other Date Night Guide cities, in support of each other, including Sales and Leadership for ADNG.
In addition to having an accelerated drive for digital and visual marketing, I am passionate about health, wellness and connecting folks to better overall living and unique experiences. I strongly believe with my variety in marketing experience, hospitality, event management, and sales collaboration, I would be a great addition to your team! I am dedicated to living the best life possible, am a team player and crave creative content for marketing local businesses to international audiences.
