I am a solopreneur / entrepreneur (launching new software company, in stealth mode) small business owner who provides services in the social, strategic marketing and partner/alliance development world that help businesses envision, plan, and execute programs that bring buyers, sellers, and channel partners together.

I also help companies large and small understand and incorporate social media into their business and personal lives. Want to know how a blog can help? Want to improve your results with partner organizations? Want to get more people involved in your initiative?? Want to improve your results?? Want to know how to find and engage with new audiences and communities that aren't on your radar yet but would be great prospects if you knew how to tap them?

Blending social media opportunities with twenty years of solid strategic and partner marketing, my next venture is "Spin It Up Local", helping to promote artisans, craftspeople and other creatives to find and capture new audiences, and identify symbiotic (I love this word) relationships that help increase their business.

I also run programs and build communities:

- Built and manage MIT Sloan CIO Symposium online community (using Pathable) for sponsors, attendees, organizers

- Managed & promoted Framingham North & South High School reunion

- Prime Computervision (co-coordinated reunion, created and manage Ning site)

Re family, I live with my husband and two great girls ages in Ashland, MA.
