What’s your favorite part of your job?
Creating things that let people know that there is an amazing channel called Up that is filled with uplifting entertainment, that can actually make you feel better just by watching it.
How do you define success in the workplace?
Having a marketing team that is enthusiastic and innovative in the way it strives for common goals, that celebrates each other’s victories and has each other’s backs. Including quality time with my adorable 5-year-old on top of my list of priorities each day.
