My passion for marketing really took shape through my work in multifamily housing and the classes I took while earning my Applied Journalism minor at Oregon State University. Studying communication, storytelling, audience connection, and strategic messaging showed me how powerful good marketing can be when it truly reflects the people behind a brand. I loved that work enough to want to build something of my own—bringing my own perspective, creativity, and style into it through High Desert Marketing Co.

After graduating in June 2025 with a degree in Speech Communication and minors in Applied Journalism and Marketing, I stepped into digital marketing professionally and now work as a Digital Marketing Associate for Parktown Living. Through my role in multifamily marketing, I’ve gained hands-on experience in SEO, social media, paid advertising, branding, and content strategy across multiple markets.

Growing up in Central Oregon, one of the things I’ve always loved most about this area is how many incredible local businesses we have here. There is so much creativity, hard work, and community behind them. But I also see an opportunity—many of these businesses could be represented more strongly online and more intentionally within the physical communities they serve.

That’s why I created High Desert Marketing Co.—to help local businesses build visibility, strengthen connection, and grow through marketing that feels thoughtful, strategic, and true to who they already are.
