About Carla

I didn't exactly set out to be a marketer. My first paid "gig" came in 7th grade, writing assignments for a friend's Business class. I was hooked on my ability to help people communicate their message. Marketing was clearly on my horizon.

An academic faux pas—majoring in electrical engineering—gave me a strong technical foundation. Eventually, I corrected my course and graduated with a master of arts from the University of Nebraska at Omaha. For me, the icing on the cake was when a publisher read my thesis, liked what he saw and published my first book.

Since then, I've worked with clients such as Hewlett Packard, Western Union, Sybase, Kiewit Corporation and EnCana Oil and Gas, to name just a few. What have I done? A little bit of everything, and all of it really well. Business development. Marketing and sales planning. Rolling out integrated internal and external campaigns. I love what I do, and it's why I skip to work every day.

Those who know me say that I bring a great deal of energy to my work. Call me. I'd like to bring it to yours too.
