Q: What do you do at your company
I provide marketing support full-circle, from our sales team all the way to our publishers. That includes managing Lane Press’ trade show efforts, spearheading our new Video Production department, managing special events and the creation of collateral such as our calendar, and web analytics and design.
Q: What is something at your business that a member could discover more about at the conference? In October, we’re holding the first annual Publishers’ Conclave in Essex, Vermont. The event covers three days and will feature speakers who are genuine innovators. There won’t be a “talking head” or pundit in sight. Visit www.lanepress.com/conclave.
Q: What hobbies of activities do you enjoy doing? I love bass fishing, freestyle skiing, playing golf, and shooting skeet. I play in the Green Mountain Baseball League during the summers, and I’ve been getting pretty good at Ping Pong lately (Lane has two tables). I also brew my own beer and hard cider!
