Outdoor

A bit about me - My name is Crista Tappan and I've worked in marketing and design for over 16 years. My passion for good design, branding, social media and marketing started when I began my first job - working for Apple as a student marketing intern. After two life-changing years, I went on to freelance, which I have been doing (sometimes for agencies) for the last fourteen years. My work in marketing in marketing, social media and community event promotion has been highlighted and recognized by REI, Adidas, Patagonia, Ultimate Direction, Trail Runner Magazine, Elephant Journal, and Ragnar.

I have worked with hundreds of companies in co-branding, campaigns and general product promotion. I have loved every second of what I've done, but am ready for something bigger.

I recently relocated to Portland from Southern California and have been dreaming of joining an energetic, outdoor related company that focuses on marketing and strategic social media campaigns. 

My resume gets into the nitty gritty, but for ease of your read-through, my best skills are:

- Digital Campaigns (Email Marketing, Content Strategy, Content Creation)
- SEO optimization
- Shopify / WooCommerce / Magento 
- Sprout / Hootsuite / Later / Planoly 
- WordPress / Squarespace / Wix / Adobe Muse
- Adobe Creative Suite (18 years of experience)
- Videography & Product Photography
- Apparel Design / Product Design
- Facebook Ads / Google AdWorks / Facebook Business Management 
- Instagram Growth & Influencer Management / Outreach

I'd love to discuss this role more in detail, and am free any time this week to talk more!

Cheers,
