and her elephant tattoo.

As a leader...
  • Grace oversees professionals from our management team, guiding day-to-day activities and sharing her experience to help those under her direction level-up their project planning skills
  • Works closely with account planning leaders to connect the dots between projects happening throughout the agency to maximize efficiency
  • Joined Simantel in 2016 as a client services intern and has held multiple project planning and project management roles
  • Loves advertising because every day is different — the perfect blend of art, business, psychology and sociology
  • Graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign with a degree in advertising, minor in communications and a media sales certificate

...and

Grace recently adopted a baby hedgehog named Reggie. Although the cutest little spikey potato, he requires a little extra TLC to feel comfortable and relax instead of rolling up into a prickly ball.
