Meet The Simple Pin Executive Team
While each of these ladies tends to wear more than one hat (we’re team players!) their individual strengths have led to the following primary roles at Simple Pin. Let’s start with the Simple Pin Executive Team!
Kate Ahl
Owner & CEO at Simple Pin Media
Visionary, leader, team cheerleader, teacher, podcaster and lover of all things Pinterest. And cheese.
Shannon Bickford
Executive Assistant to Kate Ahl
Working as the backbone for Simple Pin, when inquiring about our services, Shannon is the first person you’ll be greeted by.
Leslie Cunningham
Team Lead Manager
The queen mother of all account specialists, Leslie trains and advocates for team members while empowering them to reach their potential at SPM.
Natalie Gallagher
Operations Manager
The admin of all admins, Natalie handles Simple Pin operations and is the one to greet you with next steps, confidently walking you through the onboarding process.
Tina Gammon
Creative Director
Creative wizard and branding genius. Tina and her team passionately create pins that convert and tell your brand’s story on Pinterest and contributes to site design and Kate’s speaking engagement creatives. P.S. Will work for tacos.
Steph Hutchison
Team Administrator
Template email, check. Operations manual, check. Proofreader, check. In addition to all these essential needs, Steph keeps up with all Pinterest educational needs by running weekly education reports for the team. She’s the wheels for our educational system.
Leadership Team
Just below the executive team, but no less important, is our leadership team. Team Leads help Account Specialists excel at their jobs. This is done in the form of support, feedback, assessments, and expertise, as needed.
Each team is broken down by color. Meet each team and their proud leaders.
