SUMMARY

During my time at Jack Morton Worldwide, I was the Creative Services Project Manager for a variety of environmental and interior design projects.

Working alongside my brilliant manager Darin Holt, we were a mighty two-person team that led and supervised all creative resourcing needs across all of Jack Morton’s North American offices including NYC, San Francisco, Chicago, Boston, New Jersey, and Detroit for active projects and new business proposals, which added up to roughly 20 to 50 projects at a time. I eventually led the department on my own for nearly a year.

One of the main projects I worked on during my time with the agency was for the Grow With Google New York Learning Center.

Previously based in Chelsea, The Grow With Google New York Learning Center offered free classes and tutorials for locals of all ages, bringing them up to speed on off-the-moment skills, including coding, web analytics, online marketing, and more.
