About the Founder
Heidi Schmidt is an award-winning marketing professional with over fifteen years of digital marketing and communications experience. She is passionate about helping brands create and market content that authentically showcases their expertise and solves problems for their ideal customer. She’s worked with various businesses, from larger technology companies to smaller, local healthcare organizations both on the agency side and in-house.
When she’s not marketing herself or her clients, you can find her nose deep in a good book, going for a long walk or run, or spending time with her husband and son. She is a born and raised Vermonter, but now calls the shores of the Chesapeake in Maryland home.
Heidi has her Bachelor’s degree in Political Science from Northeastern University (Go Huskies!) and previously interned in the United States Congress, volunteered on Presidential Campaigns, and interned in the Massachusetts State House.
