Now, I experience a deep catharsis in sharing what I wish someone would have taught me back then.As a marketing director and consultant, I've worked for Houston Symphony, Paul Taylor Dance Company, Joyce Theater, and Sony Pictures. As a workshop leader, I've led thousands of entrepreneurs in digital marketing workshops through New York University, Actors Fund, Theater Development Fund and more.SATISFACTION FOR THE ATTENTION STARVEDIt's easy to feel invisible in this world sometimes.
