<\/a><\/p>\nMy next professional position brought me to CEA Marketing in Clearwater where I spent 10 glorious years doing all kinds of design and management work. From logos to sales center displays, I’ve covered nearly every aspect of print media. Then the digital age hit full force including social media. The firm switched it’s focus on heavy direct mail and print work to websites and other digital media. I’ve designed websites, banner ads, social media contest micro-sites, Facebook fan pages, e-marketing campaigns, along with posting and managing social media accounts.<\/p>\n
I’ve tackled nearly\u00a0every job that one can accomplish at a marketing firm, even building maintenance when needed.<\/p>\n
