Simplify Media
Director of Sales, HCM Media, 2012-2022
Guilford, Connecticut
Ten years ago I joined Simplify Compliance‘s media startup. Felt like just yesterday and it was one of the most inspiring experiences of my life. The ride was phenomenal. Having sold mostly traditional print media prior, Simplify offered the ripe opportunity for digital content syndication in two key business markets, HR and EHS. I grew the EHS Daily Advisor revenue into a leading industry publication and took over as the Director of Sales in 2018.
I learned how to lead in this role, managing and coaching reps on how to progressively start conversations and create relationships by conveying value.

Guilford, Connecticut
Post college I drove across country from Michigan and moved to Connecticut. I scored a job at the local Shoreline Newspapers representing the automotive segment. I dressed up in a suit and tie and drove the Connecticut shoreline every day visiting dealerships to upsell ad space and collect creative materials. It taught me how to go out and get the sale all on my own. Ask for the business!
