About Brenda Christoffer

I\'m a marketing communications professional with many years of experience developing strategies and plans for various organizations and associations, marketing programs (including email direct marketing), product launches, events, and employee organizational health activities. I\'ve also led executive messaging, global audience communications, integrated channel management, crisis communications, translation production, digital and social media, public relations, and more. I\'ve been an editor, writer, and production manager for more than a dozen newsletters; and was the event manager of BESThq\'s Business Expo West 2014 event. I bring a unique audience-centric lens in designing solutions for customer programs and services, and have demonstrated leadership success through managing teams, employees, agencies, and working with stakeholders/executives. I\'ve been fortunate to have traveled to Spain, Greece, Germany, France, Russia, China, Costa Rica, Canada, Mexico, Israel, and a few more countries, along with Cambodia on a volunteering/community benefit trip. I have strong interests and experience in social enterprise, sustainability, community outreach, environmental/recycling, and commute reduction activities-those initiatives that strive to continuously improve our local environment and communities, and contribute to a healthier world for current and future generations.
