Say hello to Sarah Joy, our new Social Media Marketing Manager

The sociomantic labs are happy to introduce our newest addition to the marketing team, Sarah Joy.

Sarah Joy originally hails from Cowtown, USA (perhaps better known by it’s proper alias, Fort Worth, Texas), where you might have found her digging for old records and books, sampling greasy-food diners in tiny rural towns across the state, collecting stories from strange characters she encountered, or talking on her front porch swing with her awesome brothers and sisters. She graduated with a degree in communication from Boston College in Massachusetts, where she studied journalism, digital media, and cyberlaw. She also studied humanistic informatics for a spell at the University of Bergen in Norway, when she first had the chance to take a few weekend trips to Berlin. Her passion for the ever-changing world of Web 2.0 and her social media marketing experience are sure to bring new shades of color to sociomantic labs’ communications.

“I am excited to work in an intimate start-up environment in such a dynamic industry,” says Sarah Joy of her new position. “The face of digital marketing is changing not only day to day, but moment to moment, so I feel lucky to have the opportunity to represent a company who’s finger is so firmly on the pulse of these changes. I look forward to fielding questions and offering comments within the industry on behalf of sociomantic labs.” You’ll find her tweeting about the company and the beauty of social as @sociomantic.

The Fun Facts:

Outside of the labs, Sarah Joy’s interests lie in post punk and electronic dance music, cyberlaw, creative commons, and consumer technology. Back in Boston she was the host of a weekly radio show called Persuasion on FM station WZBC, where she spun deep house tunes into the night as Thursday turned Friday in New England. She was also a resident DJ for a monthly clubnight called Secrets at Boston’s most popular dance club, Good Life. Outside the office, you’ll find her lolling in the sunshine in one of Berlin’s many tree-strewn parks, bouncing her head to deep beats a local record store, or chuckling at New Yorker cartoons in one of the cities myriad cozy cafes. On the social web, you’ll find her tweeting lots of links about music, Apple, technology, writing, and her love affair with living in Berlin.

Welcome aboard, Sarah Joy!
