  • Digital Ecosystem: Manage website updates, SEO strategy, and CRM integration, using Google Analytics to track and optimize performance.

  • Lead Nurturing: Design automated email "drip" campaigns and newsletters to engage prospective and returning families.

  • Event Leadership: Organize and lead promotional events and Open Houses to drive recruitment and community awareness.
