Marketing Professor at Champlain College in Burlington, VT. Mom to Fiona a fabulous Greyhound and Daisy May a feisty Cardigan Corgi. 🐾 Budding Herbalist 🌱
Interests: Activist Marketing | Diversity | Equity | Inclusion | Higher Education | Cannabis | Herbalism

I’ve been a professor for over 20 years, teaching all forms of marketing with a special emphasis on digital. I’ve been immersed in social platforms since 6 Degrees and have watched platforms come and go (anyone remember Plurk?), thrive and take over the world. I broke up with Facebook years ago, continue to hang out with Twitter but am mostly committed to Instagram and LinkedIn. I had a brief relationship with Snap, but got over that quickly and TikTok and I just don’t get along at all.

I’ve written a parent guidebook on navigating digital space with their children. You can learn about that at tunedinfamily.com.

During Fall 2020 while on sabbatical I took a break from tech and spent time in nature, learning herbalism, and reading about the impact of social platforms on our communication, learning and communities. I’ll be writing and talking about some of that here.

Looking forward to listening, learning and connecting.
