Amanda Gillette

Amanda Gillette has worked tirelessly to build a career to make her mom proud. After completing her degrees in Public Relations, English, and Journalism at Montclair State University, Amanda threw herself into the media world as a Marketing Associate at Conde Nast's WIRED. As her love for editorial, the digital landscape, and social media blossomed, Amanda pursued positions at Capezio and Shutterstock, where she launched, built, and contributed to the companies' first social media, influencer and blogger programs. Amanda previously served as Marketing Director at SHE Media's BlogHer as the in-house expert on all things digital and community-driven. Amanda is a full-fledged Jersey Girl, who only moved out of state to go across the river (briefly) and now lives in South Orange with her husband and her dog Otis.
