about<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

For the past two decades I have successfully promoted the business and culture to help place one company as a Best Companies to Work
for in Texas<\/i> for six years, receiving multiple B2B marketing awards along the way. More importantly, my contributions have increased that company\u2019s global brand awareness to gain deeper market penetration and to enter adjacent markets.<\/p>

Today, I specialize in helping smaller, often private, businesses grow. With extensive experience working for\u2014and consulting with\u2014larger companies, I leverage proven practices to create tailored, cost-effective marketing actions to achieve your goals.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
