I was born and raised outside of Boston in Shrewsbury.
Social Thrive is an a digital marketing and advertising agency focused on creating and delivering dynamic and powerful online presences for a wide range of clientele. We work with B2B and B2C companies, restaurants, nonprofits, mobile app developers, and commercial and residential real estate developers. Social Thrive focal points are: content creation/management and advertising creation/management. In 2010 I recognized the growth of online marketing expanding to social media. It was underutilized at the time. As cliché as it sounds, I felt that this area was going to be huge and that more businesses would look to social channels in their everyday marketing strategies to advertise their services and products. It became my charge to enter this field. Since founding Social Thrive, with co-founder, Kristine Resendes, the company has grown tremendously. We represent companies and organizations in Greater Boston, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Illinois, New Jersey, and New York . To celebrate our growth and success, we most recently rebranded from our previous name of Social Drive to Social Thrive.
Best advice: To respond to a client email within six hours (weekend or not). And to hire people smarter than you - which I could not agree with more.
Siri helps me keep organized. With two babies, I often do my best thinking while driving in the car. That is when things typically come to mind. I give orders to Siri all day long, setting up reminders for myself using the app on my iPhone.
I am grateful for the life that I have and I don't take it for granted. I know that I have a work life situation that some women wish for. I'm able to earn a great living while working from home with my children. Sometimes, the day-to-day grind with managing a family and career can be hard and exhausting. However, there are more blessings and despite the challenges, everything manages to work out.
