As Sales Development Manager for AOL Media Networks, I work closely with AOL's New York ad sales team to develop creative ideas and unique ways to package AOL's many offerings for our clients.

Executing creative opportunities online mandates a very short lead time, which makes it a fast-paced and exciting process. Using research, fresh marketing ideas, seasonal sponsorships and more, we create branded solutions to reach our clients' target audience in the best way possible, while positioning AOL competitively in the marketplace.

The greatest benefit of working at Time Warner is the opportunity to network with so many talented individuals, who are working in a variety of media and positions. I worked for Time and People magazines before coming to AOL, and have always found that the best way to develop yourself is to partner with others. With so much opportunity within the Company, you never know where your colleagues will end up, and who might be willing to help in the future!

Working within Time Warner also offers some unusual opportunities. I'll never forget the many chances I've had to rub elbows with a variety of notables and celebrities at parties hosted by Time and People!
