Karin Oliver-Kreft
Karin has worked with all kinds and sizes of clients, from local not-for-profits to international accounts like Blockbuster Video and Six Flags. She was part of the transition as Young Isaac was purchased by People To My Site. A passionate advocate for brand and planning, Karin is our Director of Marketing here at PTMS, overseeing all brand message and strategic planning for clients. She believes that marketing includes customer relationship management – which is why social media marketing is so important to today’s businesses. Outside of work, Karin spends way too much time learning about Japanese pop-culture through anime, manga, and J-pop, looking for a band to sing with, cooking gourmet foods from scratch, and writing fiction.
