About Kaitlyn Janak

Hi! My name is Kaitlyn🪴 (She/Her/Hers) and I\'m obsessed with social media ‍The social media industry is constantly evolving, for the worse and better. It keeps all social managers on their toes and gives brands an amazing way to connect with new and old customers. Social often gets overlooked in marketing strategy, but it can be one of the most effective ways to build a relationship with your customers, and that\'s where I come in. 🤝I didn\'t get to where I am in my career through a traditional path, in fact, it took me 7 years post-graduation to find a full-time job within my field and that aligned with my passions. When I graduated, social media wasn\'t even taught in classes, so all that I\'ve learned and done has been almost entirely self-taught. So while I may not have the exact skillsets, I do have the mindset to learn more in any role I take on. You can teach me how to do the job, but you cannot teach me character. I am currently the Digital Marketing Manager @ Humane Colorado where I am responsible for planning, implementing, and monitoring HC\'s social media platforms and website. My intention is to help Humane Colorado grow as a brand and bring awareness to all they do within the Denver metro area.Outside of Work I Am:A Book Worm A Music Fiend A Foodie A Dog Mom A Jet Setter A Mental Health AdvocateA Dreamer
