From 2010 – 2012, I produced online marketing campaigns for 4 brands (IPVanish, Newshosting, UsenetServer and Easynews) while at Highwinds.

As a member of the Online Services team, I developed online marketing strategies for several new products including IPVanish VPN and the Newshosting App. Our efforts increased subscriptions by a significant percent year-over-year.
