What do I have in common with Tina Fey and Malcolm Gladwell? Turns out we have similar leadership styles! Who knew? This week, I took The Fascination Advantage assessment to learn how others perceive me and how I can use this to my advantage, both personally and professionally. The assessment, created by Sally Hogshead , has given me a new perspective on how my peers view me and how I can become a better leader. Taking the assessment was actually a lot of fun, and even before I received the results, I found that I was learning more about myself just by thinking about the questions. I could see right away that I wasn't motivated by status, but felt more passionate by producing good work through creativity. So let's dive into the results... At first I was surprised by my results.

WARNING: This post may make you extremely hungry What is the worst part of ordering a pizza online? Definitely the waiting. You've chosen your toppings, added in some garlic knots, selected the delivery time to "As Soon as Possible"...and now you wait.

Thanks for checking out my blog! I'm so excited to start this journey online. I will be using this platform to share my opinions on the latest digital marketing trends, best practices, and content I find inspiring. I envision this blog to be similar to the notebooks (yes those still exist) we use in classrooms or meetings to take notes. The format is simple and easy to read. But the cool thing about a digital notebook is: a) it doesn't matter if you have bad handwriting b) you can share and discuss your notes easily c) there are an endless amount of pages This notebook will be filled with all my thoughts on digital marketing. I have a background in advertising and PR, and am looking forward to continuing my career and journey in marketing. To me, marketing isn't just a great TV commercial. Good marketing can come from anyone at any time. Today, just tagging a restaurant or venue in your Instagram post counts as marketing. On the flip side, with so many platf
