Big News & New Beginnings

If you haven’t already heard, I have big news! I have left my role as Community Outreach Manager at Heavybag Media and accepted a position at FIJI Water as Marketing and Social Media Coordinator. Above everything, I am grateful for the opportunities, learning experiences and fun I had at Heavybag Media.

The opportunity at FIJI is a very exciting one and I can’t wait! As the social web changes, businesses are trying to find a way to meaningfully connect with their customers and build communities around their brands (through PR, customer service, marketing, sales etc). FIJI is a brand that understands this and strives to find innovative ways to stay relevant and connect with their online communities. Because of this, I am excited to be part of their online communication strategies as well as their traditional marketing efforts.

Additionally, I will continue to be active on the social web – tweeting, blogging, flickr’ing… etc. I also plan to still attend the LA technology, startup and social media events, so don’t you worry!
