My expertise was shared in the eBusiness marketing group on projects like web development, email marketing campaigns, and emerging channels. Last year, I was an Emerging Technology Consultant to Sobeys Inc. on the national brand and product marketing team heading up emerging technology and social media strategy, in addition to creating the foundation for training, documentation, employee engagement and more. I also did some work with MyThum Interactive, Canada's #1 Mobile agency, in a hybrid role, sharing my past experience and subject matter expertise as well as developing new relationships with top tier Canadian and U.S. brands.
