Vanessa Williams

About

<p>In high school I wanted to be like Entourage's Ari Gold when I grew up (minus the swearing, misogyny, and race-oriented remarks). I looked up to this fictional character's tenacity and passion. That he regularly made something out of nothing and didn't let anything stop him from sharing his opinion. While our personalities couldn't be more different, in my marketing career, I believe I've been able to embody the positive qualities. I've been on multiple teams during their ground floor stage, helping establish new products and/or functions within some of the top tech companies in the world. From the working on the launch of YouTube Music, to serving as the marketing lead at Google's internal idea incubator, to being the marketing lead for the launch of Square's Checking product, to now overseeing Black audience marketing for Prime Video. I always try to bridge the gap of the art and science of marketing, challenging myself to find new ways to connect with consumers and build positive experiences they resonate with and remember.</p>
