Growth and marketing
but fun.
hi, i'm emily!
Last project
good marketing feels good
For nearly 10 years, I've explored growth, product marketing, community-building, and lifecycle campaign management in all-hands-on-deck environments.
Today, I'm the Marketing Manager at Presence, a digital product consultancy and full-stack development firm whose parent company, Work & Co, has been acquired by Accenture Song. In addition to articulating our value across assets and creating case studies on market-leading digital product development projects, I plan, promote, and support "sold-out" tech events (for TechCrunch Disrupt, SF Tech Week, and SF Climate Week), promote our brand thought leadership.
As I lifelong learner, I'm always enrolled in something to stay on the leading edge. Currently in my 3rd year as a Reforge Fellow, and tapped to submit Reforge Artifacts (starting with my PMF doc).

my principles
open
communication
I bring encouraging, open communication to team projects, but I don't assume everyone has the same communication preferences. I find out by asking about team dynamics, traditions, and standards.
continuous
learning
I'm intrinsically motivated by personal and professional growth and consistently learn to stay ahead in my career. I am also coachable and value open, direct feedback.
creative
thinking
My creative background helps me bring innovative strategies to marketing goals. I believe in mining outside of the box for valuable ideas and solutions.
