Resume/Bio

Hi, I’m Cortney

I graduated in the Spring of 2020 from Fordham University with a BA in English and Communications (Digital Technology & Emerging Media).

In all four years of college, I competed on the Fordham University Sailing Team. I even earned an award my Junior year as one of the top 18 crews in my conference.

Since January of 2021, I’ve been living and working in Austin, Texas. In the past few years, I’ve held several positions in social media and marketing. I’m always looking for new opportunities to build my marketing skills – from November of 2022 to April of 2023 I took a Digital Marketing Bootcamp through UT Austin and earned a certificate.

Currently, I am working for Quisitive as a Marketing Specialist, overseeing all of our marketing campaign strategy around AI and Modern Work (including email, ads, events, social, and more). I also manage over 40% of our email efforts, from initial research, drafting, testing, and segments to execution. For more information, please see my resume below or visit my LinkedIn.
