Marketing, Mountains, and Woods: Oh My | On How to Stay Connected Anywhere

Berwin Lake in McDowell County, WV – a great place for fishing!

Let’s pretend you left the big city, ran to some of the tallest mountains in southern Appalachia, and opened up shop in a remote area with lots of wilderness. That’s exactly what I did and am now delighted to be serving as Marketing Assistant for Tom Acosta Studios.

After 2 years in the City of Oaks (Raleigh, NC), I decided to return to my roots and am now actively trying to help reshape the community where three generations of my family (on both sides), has always called home.

McDowell County, WV is one of the most impoverished places in rural Appalachia. Layoffs from the coal mining industry, natural disasters, and other negative forces have wreaked havoc on the community.

Fortunately, a grassroots effort and other significant projects are starting to bring McDowell County back to life! See the Hollow: An Interactive Documentary clip for a taste of life in McDowell County, WV these days.

I am submitting a presentation at the 2nd Annual Discovery Forum, a presentation series from the Institute for Emerging Issues, and need your help! Please vote online by selecting “Rediscovering McDowell County, WV” at this link. One can select up to 8 other presentations at the bottom of the page and be sure to click “done” to cast your vote.
