Jill Richardson - Senior Account Manger at High Five Media
Jill originally moved from small town Nebraska to attend the University of Central Oklahoma as a Journalism and Spanish major. She worked as the yearbook editor and as a sports reporter until falling in love with advertising, switching her major in Advertising and Public Relations. During her time as the advertising director of a locally owned newspaper, she felt the draw of the digital trend. What used to be relatively simple - an ad in the newspaper or on television or in the yellow pages - had diversified to encompass the digital space. This space literally can change daily and can be nearly impossible to keep up with. Ten years later and with 23+ years of advertising experience, Jill’s role at High Five Media, a local advertising agency, is to help clients navigate to make informed marketing decisions for their businesses. I am married to the most fabulous man on the planet who may actually enjoy putting up with me. Between the two of us, we have five kids and way too many pets!
