The role of a media and account manager is to coordinate the media and account services functions of the agency. A good manager needs to deal with all aspects of the agency by leading project and campaign activity; ensuring that necessary actions are taken by the account team, attending client meetings, and maintaining and building strong client and vendor relationships. With her years of experience as Media Buyer, Media Director and Account Executive, Laurie brings these skills to her role as Manager.

She joined the agency in 1990 after working for several years in the financial industry, with Chase Manhattan Bank and Clover Capital Management. Today, Laurie’s responsibilities include managing the media and account functions of the agency along with developing new business.

In Fall 2002, the Central New York Business Journal acknowledged her professional accomplishments and community involvement as one of the area’s up-and-coming young professionals by selecting her to their annual Southern Tier “20 Under 40 professionals to watch” listing.

Laurie serves on the board of the Northeast Pennsylvania Advertising Club, works each year as a volunteer for the UHS Foundation Annual Appeal, and is an active volunteer for the Salvation Army in Stroudsburg.
