I started my career in media and advertising working for two full service advertising agencies right out of college as a media planner and buyer and doing account service. After a few years in the agency business I decided to move into corporate marketing and advertising.
I joined Meineke Car Care Centers (now Driven Brands) as a Media Planner & Buyer and later on a Marketing Manager. After four years in marketing, I decided to give sales a try and worked in Franchise Sales and Development for another three years with Meineke.
After Meineke, I joined Sign*A*Rama as a Regional Vice President overseeing franchise sales and development and operational support for a three state region. The opportunity came available to own and operate one of their franchises, which I did for nearly three years.
After selling the Sign*A*Rama franchise, I decided to get back into franchise sales and development and joined Valpak as the Manager of Franchise Sales for the US, Canada and Puerto Rico. Today, I am currently in my third year with Valpak and head up all of Valpak's franchising both domestically and internationally as the Manager of New Franchise Development and continue to enjoy franchising after working more than a decade within it.
