About Me
I am an experienced senior marketing communications leader with 15 years of experience. After spending five years at Text100 NYC, I took on a new challenge as second in command of the agency's Hong Kong office. As the Deputy Managing Consultant (MC) of Text100 Hong Kong, my role was focused on leading a kickass team of 21 marketing communications experts that specialize in a broad range of services including digital strategy and platform development, social media engagement, strategic media and influencer engagement. Passionate about workplace culture and people development, a big part of my job was focused on promoting Text's global culture locally and developing talent.
I grew up in agencies working on a variety of clients. While my expertise is working with B2B technology companies, I have experience working with B2B and B2C companies ranging in focus from personal computers, reality TV and luxury travel.
After over three years in Hong Kong, I have recently relocated back to New York City.
When I'm not working, you you can find me hanging out with my rescue dog, Griffin, in the boxing ring or at brunch with my husband.

“Colby is an extremely caring person which she channels in helping people around her grow. I had the pleasure of working with her and she was instrumental in helping me become the Public Relations Professional I am today. She leveraged her strategic mindset in the development of all people within our firm - as she recognized that every individual makes a difference in a company’s ecosystem. I sought out her advice long after she left our firm and she’s become my mentor - something she truly has a gift for. If you are fortunate enough to work with her in the future, take her advice and trust her strategy... you’ll be glad you did!”
