Wow — what a Homecoming 2025! Huge thanks to my amazing team and campus partners for making it the best yet. From alumni socials to a Seahawk Sweetheart proposal, every moment was unforgettable.

We set the bar high — time to start planning for 2026! Go Seahawks!

This was a great email to receive! Super excited for @higheredcmo.bsky.social new book, Heart Over Hype: Transforming Higher Ed Marketing with Empathy, dropping March 18!

Jamie is bringing a much-needed perspective to higher ed marketing, and I can’t wait to read it!

Who else is grabbing a copy?

Below, bold white and blue text announces that Heart Over Hype goes on sale March 18. Additional text in white describes the book as a call to action for more empathetic and people-first higher ed marketing, addressing frustrations with surface-level messaging and uninspired leadership.

Just received my copy of Mailed It! and can’t wait to dive in.

In my new role, I’m diving deeper into email strategy — and I’m starting to really enjoy it!

Excited to learn from some of the best in the field.

When my beach school gets snow (so rare!), my fiancé grabs his 4Runner to help me capture the magic on campus. So thankful for a partner who supports my career — I love this school and moments like these!

As the holidays approach, I’m focusing on less screen time and more of what I love with the people who matter most. Social media work can be nonstop, but this season I’m prioritizing balance. Started last night with some evening trout fishing, and it didn’t disappoint!
