Crossnet is a revolutionary four-way volleyball game. I started advertising for Crossnet on Facebook and Instagram right before the start of the Covid 19 pandemic. As nationwide lockdowns began, the product started selling quickly. Pretty soon the product went on backorder which caused shipping delays, which ultimately affected ad performance. I worked with the Crossnet team and Facebook to make sure complaints about shipping didn't affect delivery and performance, and ensured that ads and the website had ample warning of shipping delays due to the pandemic.

I was the head of performance marketing for Bloomberg Media. I led all of our advertising, from determining our budget, electing creative and overseeing external and internal execution. During my time at Bloomberg we grew yearly revenue from $4M to $100M in 3 years.
