What is your role at forbinfi and what do you do?
I’m an Account Executive, so I reach out to prospective customers in the financial industry. I am gearing up to go to conferences to spread more awareness of our website development and digital marketing services! I have been at VGM (forbinfi’s parent company) for 5 years and most of the time I have been at forbinfi! I love this team with all my heart and saw this position as an opportunity to expand my skillset and learn about a different industry.
What is your background and experience with financial institutions?
I started at forbinfi in 2018 as a UX Design intern. I then went full time as a designer but loved the idea of perfecting the process and client communication. I transitioned into a Process Lead role then took some time at another VGM marketing division to learn about print and other strategic marketing initiatives. That experience gave me insight into how to approach a more sales driven role. I came back to forbinfi middle of 2023 and found my stride in connecting with customers. I have some experience working at a bank in college and have been interested in that space with our forbinfi sector. I now get to test the knowledge and experience I have gained to help service that industry with our awesome product offerings!
What do you like to do outside of work?
I love reading, playing volleyball, and hanging out with my fiancé, dog (Miles), family, and friends.
