My passion for
marketing is contagious. When you need new energy to help you brainstorm,
set goals and take action, count on me. As an avid reader and writer, I have
a special talent for improving business communications. My track record for achieving measurable improvements via branding, marketing, public relations, strategic networking, event planning and global sourcing is backed up by solid recommendations.

A graduate of Emory University, I majored in English and Spanish while completing a marketing internship through the Goizueta Business School. I earned Top 40 Under 40, Crystal Quill and Apex awards. My experience includes heading up public relations and marketing for two global companies. Prior to that, I worked for public relations firms, a sports marketing group, advertising agencies, an advertising specialties company and UPS International Public Relations.
My volunteer efforts to share the positive impact of fitness, nutrition and integrative medicine on health and happiness led me to start a grassroots organization called Nourish New Canaan, create the first wellness policy and standing wellness committee for New Canaan Public Schools and launch several health-related companies. As a result, health, wellness and food-related businesses have become my specialty, but I have served all kinds of organizations since founding Cobieconcepts in 2002.
I am a Jersey Girl at heart with a soft spot for European traditions and Southern hospitality. I brake for festivals of any kind, especially if there is music, art, theater or ethnic food involved. I enjoy acting, hiking, relaxing on a beach, exploring the world and satisfying my inner foodie along the way.
Be true to your work, your word and your friend. - Henry David Thoreau
