Experience
Director of Marketing and Communications in Oklahoma
The Nature Conservancy (TNC) | 2021–2024
I led a team to raise the profile of TNC in Oklahoma by collaborating with subject matter experts to translate technical information into relatable content for donors and mindful movers. For example, I worked with conservationists to craft presentations that aligned with TNC’s brand standards and represented their work for the chapter’s top corporate donors. As a member of Oklahoma’s leadership team, I shaped strategic goals, budget, and culture.

Oklahoma Educational Television Authority (OETA) | 2020–2021
At the time of departing OETA, I had articulated the station’s brand, overhauled the website, directed a robust digital marketing strategy, managed outreach, and implemented award-winning marketing campaigns. I’m most proud of re-imagining the style and content of the station’s donor newsletter—reaching about 20,000 supporters each month. By raising awareness of informative national and local programming, I furthered the station’s mission of enriching Oklahomans’ lives through educational multi-platform media.
