As CEO/Founder of Trumpet Social Media, I partner with ambitious brands to develop and execute breakthrough marketing campaigns across social and e-commerce channels. I drive measurable growth

and construct ROI revenue streams for my clients. As a seasoned

corporate executive with experience and leadership in real estate,

publishing, marketing and advertising, I bring a broad overview and

understanding of business practices and strategies.

I offer adaption for companies needing tech advances, by first

reviewing their target markets’ shifting consumer behaviors, then

launching new tech systems to be at peak strength among emerging

marketplace competitors in 2025 and beyond. To help companies

control their own destiny I provide training in CX (customer

experience) to encapsulate everything an organization can do to put

customers first, by managing their journeys and serving their needs.

I also offer UX sessions that create useful understanding of how and

why a user of a product or service interacts between ethical user

experience objectives and a company's actions to achieve profitability.
