Howdy, everyone! I’m Haley Summers, and I’ve been a Social Media Manager at broadhead (formerly Filament) for almost four years now. Broadhead is an independent, full-service marketing agency that works with some amazing clients in the health and wellness, transportation, and agriculture sectors. Our specialty? Power brands that change the way we eat, move, and live. At broadhead, I’ve been lucky enough to work with some powerhouse brands like Purina Animal Nutrition, Freightliner, Boehringer Ingelheim, and GEA Farm Technologies. Helping these brands dial in their social presence and connect with their audiences is what gets me up in the morning. Agency life is fast-paced, no doubt, but when you can blend your passion with your career, it turns the daily grind into something truly rewarding.
