I am a marketing professional with expertise in developing businesses through sales, marketing and web strategies. My clients work in advertising, the Arts, publishing and philanthropic organizations. Select projects are listed on my resume and website.

I founded and ran the development department for a member-driven organization that promotes excellence in advertising, design and communication. We raised $2.5 million dollars in 5 years and created ongoing revenues streams and partnerships by developing programs and partnerships with Adobe, Corbis, Eastman Kodak, Fast Company, Getty Images, YouTube.

My Urban Sherpa is an Internet resource for travelers and residents alike, whose plethora of interests and dearth of free time demand reliable information of the well-heeled and well-traveled. My Urban Sherpa recommends restaurants, shops, exercise facilities and cultural events that cover well-known destinations and hidden neighborhood gems. Easy to navigate, time efficient, and up-to-date, the site winnows an overwhelming number of choices into a manageable reliable selection. Visitors can search for information by category and neighborhood. Listings include the street address, phone number, map, Web link, pithy description and occasionally a logo or photo.

I am the Founder, Publisher and C.E.O. of My Urban Sherpa, LLC.

I assembled the team to e-publish these rich oral histories of women who shaped our times, crafted the sales, marketing and social media plans and created the website with designer Jackie Merri Meyer.
