PHILIP JOHNSON

VP of Paid Social at Green Line Social

Kathleen is a bright and creative person, and was a pleasure to have on my team doing social media content. She loved to face new challenges, own client relationships, and continually learn. 

What stood out most with Kathleen, was her uncanny ability to pick up on client's brands and embody it on social. Clients would continually praise her work, and were able to have peace of mind when it came to their social media presence.

I had the pleasure of working with Kathleen at Friendemic. Kathleen's attention to detail, efficiency, and positive attitude all contributed to the high level of success she achieved in every role she took on. Kathleen is a natural creative who has experience in design, creative writing, client relations, and more. She was always looking to take on new challenges, and did whatever was necessary in order to tackle them professionally and gracefully. 

Whether she was placed in a team or independent setting, Kathleen could always be relied on to get the job done. She is a passionate and capable individual who thrives in a digital marketing space, and I look forward to seeing her continue to progress in the industry.

I announced a desire to immediately put together a fundraiser to raise money for two humanitarian organizations in Ukraine. Kathleen immediately volunteered as a part of her contribution to the fundraiser to build a website, maintain it, and establish branding for the project. Within 12 hours Kathleen had a beautiful and extremely functional site up and running, which included cohesive branding that tied my other creative projects to these events so it would be recognizable to my existing audience. With nearly zero oversight, Kathleen populated the site with information about the fundraisers, links to the organizations we would benefit, donation instructions, and more. Kathleen took initiative to coordinate messaging with vendors and other volunteers who had stepped in to assist with various parts of the fundraising efforts. Within five days we were able to raise over $133,000; truly, none of this would have been possible without Kathleen's prompt and very confident efforts to create a central and organized location for all of this, as well as maintain and update this information throughout the week. I cannot recommend Kathleen's skills and creativity enough.
