Inuvo: Hello Stacey, please tell us a bit about yourself:
Stacey: I’m a Florida native and, in fact, a Tampa native, too. I graduated from the University of South Florida in 2003 and have honestly not used my Management Information Systems degree since then. I met my husband in December of 1998 and we married in December 2002. We have a five year old son who just started Kindergarten and is the centre of my universe! We just got a black lab puppy a few weeks back and my son named her Julie. I’m really looking forward to her getting potty trained and her teething phase to be outgrown!
Inuvo: What is your professional background?
Stacey: I joined Inuvo three years ago as Offer Manager for the Primary Ads team. Before that, I managed a graphics team at a vendor for some of the top homebuilders in the United States and United Kingdom. It was there that I gained almost five years of experience managing a team, a never ending queue of projects and honing my 2d and 3d Photoshop skills.
Inuvo: Any exciting projects you are working on?
Stacey: Oh yes! I have a long to-do list full of both external and internal projects keeping me busy and on my toes. Right now I’m most excited about the charitable and fun events we have planned for Inuvo to get involved with. Also, we are just now wrapping up the graphics for our latest and greatest eBook.
Inuvo: What are your goals for September?
Stacey: For myself, I hope to get more organized! For Inuvo, my big goal is to successfully kick off some new projects that will be beneficial to the entire team as well as new content for our clients.
Inuvo: What are your goals for yourself and Inuvo?
Stacey: We have a great team here at Inuvo and I want the world to know about us! My goal is to continue growing our social media and marketing efforts so we get more and more people exposed to Inuvo and what we have to offer them.
Inuvo: What aspect of your role do you enjoy the most?
Stacey: I love that I have such a wide variety of items to work on at all times. I love that I get to be creative and work with such an awesome team!
Inuvo: When you are not at work, what would we be most likely to find you doing?
Stacey: Hmm, more like what would I not be doing! I enjoy having a vast array of activities and interests to keep my occupied at all times. I enjoy taking my son to the zoo, local beaches, Disney World and other fun places. I also love good conversation (some of my favorite topics include archeoastronomy, ancient history, quantum physics, cultures, religions, eschatology, Egyptology and alternative medicine), traveling, scrapbooking, knitting, crocheting, caving, photography, dancing, yoga, inline skating, swimming, running, finding new restaurants, gardening, playing video and board games (I just recently started playing World of Warcraft!), listening to Coast to Coast AM and watching movies.
