Stripped Down, Acoustic Version…<\/h2>

I was recently asks to complete a “why me” assignment for a position I was applying for. I don’t know if I’ll get that job, but I do know I loved what I wrote enough to add it to the top of my About Me page. Please feel free to read the “why me” version that is sans-marketing lingo and pro-I’m wired to write. View the pretty cool, stripped down, acoustic version of who I am<\/a><\/strong>. Rather laugh? Then watch this hilarious video<\/a><\/strong> of a Holly-like avatar explain with a pasted-on smile why I learned AI. It is so bad that it’s good.\u00a0<\/p>

Senior Marketing Writer +\u00a0AI Specialist<\/a>\u00a0By Day\u2026<\/h2>

I start each day with a \u201cHow many mountains can I move?\u201d mindset. A creative problem-solver, I know the power of adaptation. I’m an Award-Winning Project Manager<\/a>,<\/strong> Copywriter and UX Writer, so I tend to see both the big picture and the smaller details that ensure a project’s success. By day\u2019s end, if my task list is full of crossed-off accomplishments, I consider it a win. I’m also a learning junkie<\/strong><\/a>. If I don’t know how to do something, I’ll spend two days completely fixated on learning it.<\/p>

Learning Junkie<\/h3>

I have a growing list of certifications to show for it. Check ’em out<\/a><\/strong>. I have recently immersed myself in AI education, partly in revenge for it taking my job. I’ve since leveled up to Professional-status with AI Prompt Engineering and now understand and can implement the fundamentals that aid with AEO. I even took a 3 month long, 960 hour, assignment as an AI Generalist, simply to get hands-on experience. Please learn more about my intense immersion into the very field I love the least<\/a>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

A Leader and Team Player<\/h3>

My leadership style is driven by inspiration; no egos or power trips with me. Empathy is my superpower, and while I’m a natural people person, I navigate tough management challenges with ease. In the workplace, I’m professional yet approachable. To me, maintaining a high morale is a must.<\/p>

A Type A, Super-charged Creative<\/h3>

I’m also a 100% certified, full-blooded overachiever. Simply put, I am a visionary leader who aims for the sky, yet I am easy to work with and actually like when the lanes between roles are blurry and teammates help each other out.

How can I bring my passion and experience to your team?<\/h3>

Contact me and let’s find out!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>

A Mega-Nerd at Night…<\/h2>

This section is 100% “get to know me.”<\/b><\/em><\/p>

Fishin’ and Baseball<\/h3>

My favorite things to do for fun are to go fishing and hang out with my two sons. I love baseball and am a huge Astros fan (#beAltuve), but I also love Shohei Ohtani. It can’t be helped. The man is a unicorn. He’s not worth his gazillion dollar contract though. Just sayin’.<\/p>

My Kids Own My Heart and Soul<\/h3>

I like making bets with my boys. I always<\/em> manage to lose. Oh, and I have a major t-shirt addiction. And hats. I’m always wearing one. Hats go great with heels.<\/p>

The Jedi were Bad Guys. Yup. I said it.\u00a0<\/h3>

I also love Star Wars and am emphatic that there were only 6 movies that count, and you watch them in this order: 4, 5, 6, 1, 2 and 3. My favorite character is Darth Vader. Luke wasn’t the chosen one (whiny little turd). Anakin was. He brought balance to the force. Twice. Oh, and I think the Jedi were tyrants (Flexible they were not. Dictators they were. Yes.) Read my whacko theory<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>

Song Lyrics are My Love Language<\/h3>

I am fluent in both song lyrics<\/a><\/strong> and quotes from ’80s, ’90s and ’00s movies. I don’t think I could go a full day without quoting someone or something.\u00a0
