My professional goal is to be a constant learner of communications. My experience is deliberate: I initially took real life lessons on the disciplines of traditional media--print, radio, and TV--then ventured into web communications, developing important skills and contacts along the way. By understanding how to harness all forms of media, I have developed a professional passion for creating mashups of tools, turning them into strategies and action plans that are not only effective but also efficient.
