I’m am super excited to announce that I will be hosting two social media presentations at Elizabethtown College, where I work as the integrated marketing manager. These events, while hosted on campus, are open to the general public — and are free. Both sessions are the same; there is just a day and evening one [...]
I’ve taken a hiatus from blogging. It’s not that I didn’t want to blog. It’s not that I’ve had nothing to blog about. (Quite the opposite in fact!) It’s just that time slipped away. It happens to the best and worst of us, right? I discourage people form blogging if they can’t keep up with [...]
I recently received the Inbound Marketing Certification, joining many of my friends and colleagues who have already taken this exam. I’m very excited to join the ranks of my fellow Internet marketing and social media gurus and will proudly wear this badge. The Inbound Marketing Certification acknowledges the recipients proficiency in Inbound Marketing principals and [...]
Those are a few words I like to say. Discombobulate. Fiddle. Goop. Everyone has a few favorite words, but how many of us share the same word choices? ChapbookPublisher.com‘s Dan Waber is setting out to find just that with his 500 Favourite Words chapbook and word cloud series. And, I am so excited to be [...]
A few weeks ago at work I received a call from freelance writer Sara Hodon. She was working on a piece on technology companies for Keystone Edge, an online publication dedicated to the new economy of Pennsylvania. Sara’s piece was about Internet marketing.

A few months ago, Catherine Shafer of CDS Creative invited me to present on blogging for business at May’s Cocktails & Connections. Cocktails and Connections is a monthly networking event held at the Woodlands. Professionals can get together to relax, network and learn. Pretty cool concept. May’s event is slated for this Tuesday, the 25th [...]
In January 2010, I completed the MFA in creative writing from Wilkes. Since there is no winter ceremony, my cohorts and I had to wait until the May 2010 graduation. We all joked yesterday that it was as if we were milking this graduation thing. In fact, some of my acquaintances thought I maybe went [...]
I love my alma mater, Wilkes University. So much so, that I am now part of the communications studies faculty as an adjunct professor. My first class, Social Media & PR, starts in a few weeks. I’ve also become active with our alumni association as a member of the communications committee. The Wilkes alumni office [...]
Just realized I never posted this bit of news coverage Solid Cactus, my company, received on Cyber Monday. Co-founder Scott Sanfilippo and I were interviewed. This doesn’t so much pertain to my writing, but I like to share that here since I do a lot of social media for writers stuff, too. Enjoy! [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZ9ovPOLjVQ]
I’ve decided to turn this more into an informational site for bio and marketing purposes, rather than just a blog to update when I’ve been published. With that, I’ve created more informational pages here. Guess that’s about it. Enjoy!
