Hey there, I'm Mitzi!

Ok, that isn’t me, that’s Maxwell. But, I (Mitzi) love collaboration, developing innovative solutions, creating impactful designs that resonate, and strategic marketing campaigns that drive results.

Unrelated, Maxwell is a very good boy.

Who I Am

  • I’ve worked in marketing and graphic design since 1996, primarily in real estate, real estate finance and law. This includes strategy, content, social media, video editing, media purchases and negotiations, drafting press releases, PPC, analytics and more.

    From the Adobe Creative Suite to content management systems (CMS) to customer relationship management (CRM) - I've handled virtually all aspects of the technology side of marketing.

    I've also handled nearly all other aspects of the practical side of marketing: Direct mail, print advertising, flyers, billboards, customer list management and much more.
