KELSEY RUOCCO

What started as continuous changes to the HTML and profile song on my Xanga and Myspace accounts in 2003, turned in to a real love for social media and the incredible affect it can have on our lives. It also happens to be something I'm pretty darn good at.

Creating a Facebook page for the Checkers Charitable Foundation, a non-profit organization I managed, on a whim in 2015 led to directing social media for Brave Step, another non-profit organization, for over four years in a volunteer capacity.

It was kismet when my teammate left for maternity leave not long after I started as the Events Manager at the Humane Society of Charlotte and I was asked to cover HSC social media channels in her absence. The passion I have for creating content and sharing our story led to me being asked to take on social media full time in conjunction with managing HSC events. Most recently, I was sought out by the owner of Clawguard, a pet product company based in Charlotte, NC, to manage the company's social media accounts. After six months, I was asked to direct all marketing and communication efforts.

My current positions:

Social Media and Marketing Coordinator for Move for Jenn

Social Media Specialist for the Humane Society of Charlotte

Marketing Specialist for Dream On 3

Director of Marketing and Communications for Clawguard
