Marketing operations leader at At Your School who drove 35% enrollment growth through coordinated campaigns and streamlined workflows.
What I'm looking for
At Your School, I drove 35% enrollment growth in FY22–FY23 through coordinated promotional strategy, refined messaging, and stronger cross-channel engagement. I also developed an 18-month operational marketing calendar and standardized workflows to improve coordination across departments.
When I reassumed leadership of Marketing and Communications, I led a Webflow website project and helped achieve average annual enrollment growth of 15% from FY23–FY25. We also maintained annual web traffic of 50,000+ users while reducing ad spend by 30%.
At AMA Indy, I helped grow membership by 18% and email subscribers by 45% year over year through a comprehensive communications strategy. I also built and launched the chapter website in collaboration with board members and web developers.
After a planned international sabbatical focused on travel, personal growth, and career reflection, I’m excited to bring fresh perspective to my next role. I’m exploring opportunities as a Senior Marketing Manager, Marketing Operations Manager, Marketing Program Manager, or Marketing Project Manager.
