Pavilion

Following a year in which I served the Marketing and Member Success teams at Pavilion, I'm fortunate to now serve the Marketing and Growth teams, whose focus is on growing topline revenue. The departments within this team include marketing (brand, content, product marketing, demand gen, partnerships, events, and community) and sales (both B2B and B2C).

After 3 years as a Pavilion Member, Chapter Head and Ambassador, I joined Pavilion to serve the Marketing and Member Success teams.

The CannabizMD mission is to educate, build and engage a network of medical cannabis industry stakeholders, clinicians, industry influencers and patients to create an ecosystem advancing the needs of Maryland’s medical cannabis industry. I served as a Board-level advisor to the organization's founder.

Advisory Board Member

I spent the first part of my career working to make the world a better place by improving access to clean water and wastewater disposal in 50+ developing countries around the world. I loved my work as an international development consultant, but when it came time to start my family, I chose to settle in Annapolis Maryland and co-found a marketing agency with my husband.

We launched Quintain Marketing in 2006 and through our early partnership with HubSpot, grew it into a nationally-known digital marketing agency. We sold the business in 2017 to HubSpot's largest global partner and I began a new chapter in my career as a head of marketing (SVP, CMO) for high growth B2B tech companies looking to transition from start up to scale up.

Today, I serve the Marketing & Growth teams at Pavilion as part of our mission to help go-to-market leaders and their teams achieve and unlock their full professional potential. My scope includes the entire revenue organization, including marketing, media, events, partnerships, and both B2C and B2B sales. 

Outside of work, I am a Board-level advisor to several tech startups and have been named by USA Today as one of 6 Global Marketing Advisors Who Are Rising Stars, a frequent public speaker on topics relating to digital marketing, and a passionate advocate for entrepreneurs.

I've been named by TopRank as one of the 50 Top B2B Marketing Influencers, by Insightly and TrustRadius and GTM Partners as one of 30 GTM Gurus, and by Influence Digest as a Top 15 Marketing Expert in Washington, DC.

The most interesting marketing teams of the next decade won’t be built at big enterprises. They’ll be born inside early stage companies.

Why? Because they have the clean slate.

For years, the model was simple: more work = more people.
 
But AI has broken that equation.

The new model looks like this:

 1️⃣ What needs to get done?
 2️⃣ Can AI solve it?
 3️⃣ If not, who can we hire that will take an AI-first approach?

That’s not about replacing marketers. It’s about forcing ourselves to get brutally honest about what truly requires human creativity, empathy, and judgment - and what doesn’t.

Yes, AI can write a blog draft, or an email, or a webinar outline - or even a LinkedIn post 😉 

But only humans can inject original perspective.

Yes, AI can optimize campaigns, suggest strategies, and write creative briefs.
 
But only humans can build trust and spark emotion.

The early stage companies that lean into this mindset will build smaller, smarter, more innovative teams that punch way above their weight. 

They’ll push the boundaries of AI while concentrating human energy on the real differentiators: creativity, connection, and bold points of view.

It will be harder for legacy teams to adapt. They’re anchored in old models of headcount and workflows. 

But challengers? They have the opportunity to rewrite the rulebook.

I, for one, am excited to see who takes it.

Are there companies you know that are already rethinking how to build an AI-first marketing team? I’d love to hear about them.

Who is already innovating on this?
