JoiebdayYou can learn a lot about me from this blog, the tag line alone “Social Media Exposed” is a window into my world.  I’ve come to realize after working in various newsrooms and public relations agencies that nothing is kept “private” or a secret… the rumor mil is always turning and these days what happens at work, or in Vegas stays on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and anywhere else someone wants to stick.

I’ve created this blog as a place to expose my work and life and I hope you share yours with me.

This is my bio, so here’s a bit about me.  I grew up in sunny San Diego and had a rockstar childhood (thanks mom and dad!).  I left the nest for college at 17 and headed to Sonoma State University and landed my first gig at CNN in 2001, then NBC11 / KNTV in San Francisco for the next 6 years. I have freelanced as a producer for NBC’s Today Show, MSNBC and CNBC.  In 2007, I left my heart in the SF newsroom and moved to Austin, TX with my boxer puppy, Murphy.

I am the Social Media Strategist for Callaway Golf in Austin,TX.  I also freelance in pr and new media.  I have a passion for social media, dogs and fashion, you’ll get your fill of style tips on this blog since most my freelance clients are health and beauty focused.

The best lessons in life have come from raising my dog Murphy, he has shown me that life is tough and it’s not fair, but it is good and it is worth showing up to the dance.
