I began my career in New York City, working in online marketing and ad tracking for high-end corporate clients. Managing large-scale advertising campaigns, I honed my expertise in data analysis, reporting, and team collaboration, gaining valuable insights into digital strategy and client management.

After several years in the corporate world, I moved to Los Angeles and sought a career that combined my marketing skills with a more hands-on, outdoor focus. I founded and operated my own custom residential landscape design-build company, Annie Wright Design, working with top designers and earning recognition in HGTV, Lonny Magazine, and the LA Times Magazine. For over a decade, I brought creative visions to life through innovative drought-tolerant landscaping, balancing artistry with practicality.

Eventually, I transitioned back into marketing, this time for Landscape Development, Inc., one of the largest landscape companies in California and Nevada. As Marketing Director, I have developed expertise in branding, CRM implementation, and content strategy. I led the creation of a company-wide CRM system using MS Dynamics Sales Pro, streamlining sales tracking and pipeline visibility. I spearheaded SEO strategies across multiple service lines, significantly increasing organic reach, and enhanced company culture through strategic internal communications, including the development of a company intranet. My role also includes producing marketing materials, organizing large-scale events, and leveraging video production and editing to build a cohesive brand presence.

This blend of creative and corporate experiences has shaped me into a versatile professional who thrives at the intersection of strategy, communication, and design. My work is fueled by a passion for creating meaningful connections between brands, clients, and teams.
