Who is Mackenzie Steen?
She is a evidence-based marketer with a passion for work & life.
A childhood fixation turned into a dream career.
I thank my 8-year-old self for unknowingly sprouting my passion for marketing by watching hours of Nickelodeon as a child. During that time, my fascination for brand building and story telling arose through absorbing what felt like endless commercials. Who knew I’d later be strategizing, producing and starring in content just like the ones I used to love?
My goal with growing brands is to create brand recognition and growth through data-driven mediums. Whether it’s social, experiential or even print, every asset produced should have a purpose, and that’s where I come in as the mind being the marketing.
Outside of my 9 to 5?
Whether I’m looking for a new hobby, booking my next trip or heading back to Virginia to spend some time with my family, I love to stay busy. I truly believe the best way to grow is to ditch the comfort zone which has led me to running the NYC marathon, jumping out of 2 planes and enduring a 16-hour flight to explore the other side of the world.
Fun Facts:
I was born and raised in Virginia where my parents still reside (still in my childhood home) then later moved to NYC to experience the big apple.
I’m a self-proclaimed foodie, love to try the newest hot spots, luckily, I am the opposite of a picky eater.
After I ran a half and full marathon in the same year, I told myself I’d never run another race. Well…I’m currently training for another half so never say never!
