46 TopicsHi Y'all
Hey there, I'm Vanessa! I'm super excited to be part of the Braze Bonfire community. I'm really focusing on honing my skills in developer email marketing and working towards digital marketing roles with a focus on analytics and strategy. π When I'm not buried in programming or hitting the books, I'm usually hanging out with my stepson, gaming, chilling with our adorable pups, or exploring new places with my hubby. Our 3 furbabies definitely keep me on my toes: Stella, a 15-year-old Dachshund (Bosses the whole family); Logan, a 7-year-old German Hunt Terrier (Jadgterrier); and our newest addition, 1-year-old Hazel, who's a delightful mix of Corgi, Poodle, Dachshund, Pekingese, Schnauzer, Cocker Spaniel, Yorkshire Terrier, and Mini Aussie. πΎ82Views3likes5CommentsExperienced Braze user looking for new role

Nice to meet you. For the last 4+ years I have been the Technical CRM manager for the Corsair group of companies working here in the San Francisco bay area. Onboarding just after Covid sent everyone home for "a few weeks", its been quite the experience. My Braze journey started right around 3 years ago with the search for an engagement platform to replace Bronto, Klaviyo, Sendinblue, Mailchimp, and Attentive (for SMS), and also readily integrate with Corsair's CDP mParticle (an entirely different journey which had started the year prior). Fast forward, and Corsair, Drop, Elgato, Gamer Sensei, Origin PC, and Scuf Gaming have been successfully operating on a Martech stack with Braze, mParticle and Snowflake at its core, giving them the capabilities to carry them into the future for years to come. Last week, my journey may have ended with Corsair (along with ~100 coworkers), but I am sure Braze will continue to be part of my processional life for many years to come.

Hi everyone! My name is Roxy, and I have my dear friend Charles to thank for introducing me to the joys of Braze many years ago. A few things about me below, I am also totally up for an ice-breaker if anyone fancies :) I am currently based in L.A., and loving the weather we are having βοΈ My favorite ice cream is mint choc chip π¦ I currently lead email for a tech company. I adore my job and team, but due to all kinds of unexpected RTO changes I'm looking for my next role (I'm super fun, if you're hiring!) π I am from Scotland, and have a strong Scottish accent π΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώ Lovely to meet you all!! <386Views2likes4CommentsBonjour ππ» I'm Elyssa
Where I'm from: Tunisia & Belgium Where I live now: Edinburgh, Scotland π΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώ What I do now: I've been a Lifecycle&CRM Consultant for over 2 years now, and I am co-creator of Building Blocks, which aims at empowering CRM teams to build emails faster and smarter thanks to the Content Blocks Braze feature (I think it's cool, ping me about it!) π A brand I admire: Spotify, coming out of left-field, turning an industry on its head, and managing to have your marketing end-of-year (originally email) concept copied by all the other brands? I'm in. Favourite trip I've ever taken: I used to be one of these 20-something whose entire personality revolves around travelling (I even had a travel-newsletter) so this is extra hard! I think perhaps a road-trip from San Francisco to Seattle a few years ago. Wild vistas and less crowded than the usual SF to Los Angeles itinerary! (I love a good road trip)3.2KViews6likes6CommentsHi all, i'm Brad π
