As a born and raised Vermont and New England gal, I'm thrilled to be bringing you my dirt-road street creds and over two decades of business, technology and marketing experience via Green Mountain Social!

Having spent much of my career excelling in the corporate scene, I've always felt like something was missing. A lack of fulfillment. As if all of the hard work and effort put in was not making an impact that truly makes a difference. I often asked myself - am I REALLY happy in this space?

I told myself that I was "happy enough". I worked with fantastic people, built and led extremely effective teams, and tackled (and conquered) challenges that others would not touch with a 10-foot-pole. I told myself that my corporate 9-5 (ha!) paid the bills quite well and it, well...just was the way that successful careers work.

PLOT TWIST!

That scene, my friends, is no longer going to cut it. Not for this woman. It's not the way I intend to be showing up in this life.

I've thought deeply about my purpose. What inspires me most? Who inspires me most? Who am I serving? How do I want to spend the rest of my career serving in a way that feels not just good, but great?

The answer came and it is now perfectly clear for me.

It's not about the work that I do, it's WHO I do it for, and with. It's about HOW I want to serve and work with others.

With Green Mountain Social, I get to use my passion, experience, smarts and superpowers to help local businesses grow THEIR businesses.

It's that simple. And it makes me very happy.

In early 2023, corporate America and I wished one another well and went our separate ways.

With the support of my biggest cheerleader (my rockstar husband, Kevin), we continue to invest in mentorships and training for me to stay up to date with the latest digital and online marketing strategies and add to my toolbox. I am laser-focused on making that meaningful impact my soul has been searching for.

With all of this, we bring you my over 2 decades of business experience, my love for all things digital advertising and marketing, and my passion for helping local business owners solve some of their greatest challenges.

We bring you, Green Mountain Social.

"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one less traveled by.

And that has made all the difference."

A few years ago, if someone had told me I’d be a military retiree working in digital marketing, I probably wouldn’t have believed them. Back then, I was deeply committed to a promising career in the U.S. Navy, excelling as a digital analyst and driving organizational development. This role allowed me to enact positive changes beyond my wildest dreams, a career I envisioned continuing far into the future.

But life had different plans, and here I am today! My military career honed my skills in strategic planning, teamwork, and adaptability, which have seamlessly transitioned into my civilian pursuits. I’m incredibly grateful for the educational benefits that enabled me to earn an M.S. in Organizational Leadership and Development before retiring. This degree solidified my expertise in optimizing organizational structures and fostering dynamic leadership, leading to incredible opportunities in my final military years.

Fate led me to civilian life just as Green Mountain Social was launching. Now, I proudly apply my diverse skill set and extensive knowledge to the realm of digital marketing. Beyond my professional life, I am a staunch advocate for continuous learning and personal development. I consider myself a lifelong learner, a topic I had the honor of discussing in a TED Talk at Lackland Air Force Base a few years ago.

I am profoundly thankful for the support of my husband, Lucas, who backs my educational and professional endeavors (and the many DIY projects I dream up for our homestead), as well as our intelligent daughter, Olivia, who embraces the lifelong learner mindset just as I do. Without them, I wouldn’t be the woman I am today!

With over a decade of experience in analytics and organizational development, I love bringing my expertise to our clients and look forward to continuing this journey as Green Mountain Social makes its mark on the world.
