Annette, whose office is the best decorated and most organized at Alstin, takes her job seriously. One of our strongest strategic thinkers, Annette packs an incredible amount of knowledge and experience into her diminutive frame. Known for addressing problems head-on, this dedicated dynamo is the “right hand woman” for all of her clients. More than “handling” accounts, Annette leads by example - understanding the realities of her clients’ challenges and coming up with solutions in a way that makes her seem less like an advertising person and more like part of HR. Remembering crazy statistics, spouting off metrics about a campaign’s performance, and handling the workload of about 10 people? That’s Annette- as trusty and reliable as her much-loved Subaru. When she’s not watching her clients’ backs, she’s tuning into Project Runway and Top Chef—or keeping her eyes peeled for a rare cedar waxwing.
