Anyone can do marketing. I bring experience and guidance you can trust.

Hi there! I'm Amanda, the owner of this little shop. I'm a mom to two spirited girls and one goofy beagle mix. I run on strong coffee, good books, and podcasts that imagine what's next. 

​

Curiosity has always been the driving force behind my story. As a student at East Carolina University, I dreamed of being a museum curator and majored in Museum Science. During an internship at The Greenville Museum of Art, I fell in love with the mix of storytelling, strategy, and creativity that is marketing. 

​

Over the past 20 years, I've built a career helping brands bring their visions to life in thoughtful ways. I've navigated the marketing world from every angle, including big-agency life at The Martin Agency, to client-side roles with home builders and concert venues. I've witnessed the evolution of the digital landscape firsthand, from Friendster to MySpace to Facebook and beyond. ​​

​

Through Curious work, I blend imaginative thinking with smart strategy to help small businesses, nonprofits, and boutique brands bring bold ideas to life, without the hefty price tag of an in-house CMO.
