Nice to Meet You!

Heidi Mader Mattingly

Senior Media Strategist

Hi, I'm Heidi Mader. For the last several years I've been helping clients navigate the very challenging media landscape. I'm part account executive and part media planner and buyer. I help our new business team, so I work with both new and existing clients, helping them navigate paid media solutions using online and offline media. I'm fortunate to have managed media for marketers in music, entertainment, non-profits, education, consumer package goods and emerging brands.
