I am a social business initiative driver of change at Parker Hannifin. Beside being a certified social business strategist, national speaker, trainer, I ride my bicycle whenever I can and donate time back to my greater community as a bike safety instructor. With a broad range of business experience and roles, I get engineering, sales, traditional and digital marketing and channel management. I have lived on both sides of the distributor fence. I enjoy helping integrate and execute social across an organization - from product development to engineering, marketing to customer service/support, human resource management to recruiting, and sales to public relations.

My role as Global eBusiness Social Media Manager for Parker Hannifin is pretty exciting and demanding. Prior work included founding my own consulting firm. Launching and supporting several successful social media organizations, and was a Founding Member, Alumni and Faculty at Society3 Academy and SoBizco.

I have been involved with business development, product marketing and Internet strategies for manufacturers, technical products and service related companies for over 30 years. My past consulting clients include Women's International, Harley Davidson, Bucyrus Erie, Fairbanks Morse, Webster Electric, Twin Disc, Oscar Mayer - Kraft Foods, Envirex, University of Wisconsin, and Alliant Energy.
