Professional Summary
A longtime publishing and communications professional, I am Associate Director for Alumni Relations/Content Engagement at Harvard Business School. This newly created position draws upon my diverse background in print and online media and nonprofit marketing/communications with the goal of leveraging Web 2.0 tools to build new connections and community between HBS thought leaders and alumni.
Previously, I was Editor in Chief of CCI Crosby Publishing, a custom-media firm in Allston, Mass., that produced high-impact marketing-focused magazines and Web content for clients in education, health, and 50+ lifestyle. My print career includes senior-level roles at the Boston Herald, Boston Magazine, Lowell Sun, Teenage Magazine, NewReview, and the publications of the Massachusetts Bar Association. On the Web, I launched BostonHerald.com and SmallBizResource.com and won awards for the redesign of MassBar.org.
