k8 + Liz = Organization Nation. The combination of an increased work load, my incurable condition of being severely right brained, and the fact that cloning myself is not currently an option, has made the fact that I need some support pretty obvious. This week, I am fortunate to be welcoming Elizabeth Callahan (better known as Liz, or @Bflo_girl) as a force to handle some organization for k8creative projects.

After her official rite of passage, savoring Starbucks holiday drinks with me this weekend, I’m really looking forward to integrating Liz in the mix to keep projects up to speed so that I can be focused on what I do best — the creative work. This also will help free up time for me to work on more collaborations (which I’m really big on) with other like-minded communications professionals in the area, like @Buffalogal and @KatieKraw.

Liz is a well-known face in the Buffalo community, as a passionate volunteer and coordinator for several local organizations. She has masterfully orchestrated large-scale projects, like City of Light, so I’m thrilled about the opportunity to have her mad organizational skills on my side! Additionally, Liz holds a Bachelor of Arts from SUNY Purchase in Media, Society, and the Arts (a degree name which is super awesome if you ask me. “We’re arts majors.”).

Liz is busy already, gearing up to start organizing three new projects right away! A huge welcome, and thank you, to Liz!
