About

I went online for the first time 17 years ago on a Mac Classic, our first family computer. Ever since, I have been tinkering, building, creating, teaching, connecting and making a living with the help of the web.

The way we use the web has matured from a quaint diversion to an essential way of communicating, buying, organizing and operating. Powerful tools such as Facebook allow the smallest of businesses to connect with their customers in a way that was impossible just five years ago. I have dedicated my career to helping small businesses and organizations harness the power and capabilities of the internet.

Influenced by my mom’s entrepreneurial background, I got degrees in marketing and entrepreneurship from the Sawer School of Management at Suffolk University. After graduating in 2004, I continued my studies at Cleveland State University in graphic design. Armed with a diverse educational background, I have since held jobs selling mobile enterprise plans for T-Mobile and directing the marketing for an auto-group in Cleveland. Currently, I am the interactive marketing specialist for JCC Association in New York City.

I started Marketplicity in 2004 in response to the growing demand for my internet marketing and web design services outside of my full time job. What started as a way for me to have fun on the weekends (I build websites for fun in my spare time – I know, I’m a huge geek) has grown into a blossoming business with over a dozen clients spanning many different industries.

If you are looking to update (or create) your small business’ internet presence or create a stronger Internet marketing strategy, please get in touch. My services include Search Engine Optimization, Internet Marketing Consulting, web design and more. If you are just browsing and want to learn more about internet marketing, check out my small business internet marketing blog where I have published helpful how-to articles, industry insight and more.

Thanks for stopping by and I look forward to helping you!
