// HELLO!

I’m a lover of all things vintage, football, chapstick, food, photography, creative people, conversations, and hugs ♥ Here you will find a collection of ideas, recipes, photos, and inspirations that stir my soul. Join me in my journey.

// I WORK TO LIVE

I’m having a blast doing all things marketing at AmazonWireless. Previously, I’ve worked in various roles at Microsoft Advertising, specializing in search engine marketing, display advertising, and marketing communications. First job? I’m a proud Hot Dog On A Stick veteran (and I have pictures to prove it).

// AND LIVE TO LEARN.

My alma maters belong to Seattle, where I studied Marketing at Seattle University after a small stint in Graphic Design. The UW Digital Media program is where I developed my blog as a class requirement. Over the years, Social // Potato Chips has evolved into a lifestyle blog, and serves as a creative outlet to share thoughts on life, photography, food, style, and marketing.

// MY MOTTO IS WORK HARD

I like to dust off my paintbrush, provide marketing advice for small businesses, and seek adventures. For example, a friend dared me to enter a social media contest best known as “A Really Goode Job” by Murphy Goode Winery in 2009. While I couldn’t snag the world’s greatest job as featured by Mashable and New York Times, I made it to Top 10 and met some quality people who I now consider “goode” friends”.

// AND PLAY HARD.

In my spare time, you can find me traveling to places I’ve never been (and eating my way through it), racking up miles on my running shoes, spending too much money on camera equipment, and challenging my palette for new Yelp entries.
