Hi, I’m Brittany.

I started on the creative side: design, copy, photo, video and web. Three associate degrees later (Advertising Communications & Design, Web Design & Development, and Liberal Arts & Sciences) I could make almost anything a marketing team needed.

Then I started running the thing. At Buyers Edge Platform I managed full-scope campaigns for 115 of the world’s largest food manufacturer brands, up to 60–70 projects a week, from messaging and budgets to launch and performance reporting. I hand-built 750+ HTML newsletters a year for audiences of up to 170,000, worked with IT on our custom art platform and photo studio, and started an in-house corporate video service, helping build its pricing, that brought in $60K+ in its first year. Between corporate roles I ran Highbloom Digital, my consultancy, full time: I owned 25+ client accounts end to end, managed budgets up to $500K a year, managed a bench of up to 30 contractors and averaged a 25% lift in client ROI. At Tri-CAP I led five departments (communications, IT, data, intake and outreach) with a team of five, and connected how the agency’s technology, data and communications worked together. I wrote a five-year technology plan that found $350K in savings and presented it to the Board, cut the next year’s overhead by more than $20K, led a six-month move to outsourced IT, automated client intake with self-service kiosks and compiled the data behind a federal grant of about $500K. I also ran PR, crisis communications and the annual report, and finished a rebrand already underway. When the role became almost entirely IT, I chose to come back to the work I do best.

Today I’m Marketing Specialist at Catholic Charities of the Diocese of St. Cloud, an agency of 12+ programs and 300 employees. I handle its marketing communications and strategy: the annual campaigns (one round of our Make God’s Love Visible appeal raised more than $90K), every agency survey, a $10K-a-month Google Ad Grant I found and put to work, an in-house photo and video studio that saves $10K+ a year, a 3,000-photo media library and a 400-item brand hub, plus the communications side of a Salesforce rollout. I’ve twice received the Better Together Award for cross-department impact.

I’m also completing a B.A. in Integrated Studies at St. Cloud State University (Strategic Communications, Business Economics and Marketing), online and at my own pace, expected spring 2028. It puts a degree behind skills I already use every day and deepens the core of my T as AI reshapes marketing.
