Mammoth Marketing-Alaska

Account Executive
Managed 20-25 accounts working with various small businesses in the Fairbanks, Delta Junction, and Anchorage areas. It was my job to develop and execute marketing campaigns, being as efficient as possible given the client's industry, current business situation, and budget.

I would also educate both current and potential clients as to our services, my recommendations to them based on their budget and goals, and reach out to new connections to inquire whether they needed help with their marketing. When potential clients would call in to ask what we could do, I would pre-qualify them and use consultative selling techniques to begin the relationship.

US Navy Rescue Swimmer
The Navy and I exchanged gifts to each other: I gave 6 of the most fruitful, energetic, and healthy years of my life. The Navy has given me a fantastic education, real life experience and a plethora of wonderful stories and memories. While I considered staying, I decided that there is quite a bit more that I want to accomplish and experience. 

With close friends and colleagues wishing me luck and fond farewells, I have moved on, seeking to educate and establish myself in a new career field.

Community Relations
Joined a group for a day of interaction with children at a school in Bahrain. My coloring skills were just not up to par with some of these kids! I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Interacting with children from another country was just an unreal experience.
