Our (small, but mighty) team.
Nice to meet you.
I’m Bernadette.
Professionally:
Much like all small businesses, this is a one-woman show. Along with Mian Creative, I work a 9-5 managing marketing for a healthcare tech company that is making staff lives easier and educating patients. I never thought I’d find a job that I am so passionate about and am so happy to get to do something I love for a company with a mission I believe in every day! Through my professional and freelance work, I have experience with managing social media, graphic design, event planning, building brands, email marketing, product launches, advertising, building and maintaining websites for global corporate companies, and small businesses in so many different industries.
I know that starting a small business can be scary (and expensive), and I want to help you succeed. Despite your budget or where you are in your business, I truly believe that everyone deserves (and should invest in) great marketing and branding.
Personally:
While it’s important to know who you are working with from a professional side, it’s equally important to work with someone you get along with personally, so here’s a bit about me.
I am originally from NJ (yes, we have the best pizza and bagels), but I always say that I want to live everywhere at least once. While I know that’s impossible, I’ve made a dent so far and checked off Virginia, North Carolina, and currently reside in Michigan with my husband (Andrew) and my service dog (Ross)! We love traveling, gardening, kayaking, trying new restaurants, but also are huge fans of staying in and binge-watching our favorite shows or having a game night with the fam!
I love all things Gilmore Girls, true crime, reading, and have a huge sweet tooth. Although I am dealing with multiple chronic illnesses, I love a good challenge and recently got my Master’s in Digital Media & Advertising. And in case you’re wondering where Mian came from, I come from a very Irish background (I have the 23&Me results to prove it in case you couldn’t tell by my pale skin), and Mian is Gaelic for ambition or desire, both of which are so important in owning a small business and in life.
I can’t wait to build your brand with you - Sláinte!
