Miami + Beyond

Barbara is the team member who keeps us all inspired, who exemplifies our core values, and leads us to think bigger, learn better, and add a human touch to every aspect of the business. She’s been a driving force at MSSmedia almost since its inception, and holding roles in every area of the company from business development to advertising sales to marketing to management is why she’s so adept at paving the way for MSSmedia’s big picture while making sure each aspect of the agency continues to thrive. She loves the dynamic nature of her role, she loves leading a nimble team, and she especially loves a challenge probably because she’s so good at rising to them. Though she grew up in Savannah, Georgia, and lived in Chicago for a number of years (after graduating from DePaul University), Barbara could not be happier in Miami, soaking up the near-constant sunshine and getting to see the ocean every day. Especially since she gets to do it with her husband and their two Maltipoos, Noodle and Nala.

Everyone will tell you that Danielle is a consummate people person, which is why her role as MSSmedia’s account manager could not be more perfect. Danielle is the go-to gal for every single one of our clients—answering questions, checking in, and, when the time comes, building the most beneficial campaign renewals inspired by her familiarity with each client’s evolving needs. It’s attention to detail with a personal touch—a stellar customer service combo. Just as Danielle’s role is perfectly suited for her, there’s no city besides Miami this Michigan native would rather be. When she’s not building relationships and taking care of business, you’ll find this self-proclaimed beach bum running along the ocean or enjoying a Kristin Hannah book on the beach.

Charlotte Zoda loves rules and processes. She also loves lists, as evidenced by the lifetime supply of yellow notepads in her desk drawer, her avid use of WinNote, and her ever-present priority-tasks printout marked with colored highlighters. Charlotte’s held a variety of roles during her six years at MSSmedia, but thanks to these proclivities none suits her quite like traffic and operations management. The New York native and SUNY Buffalo graduate works adeptly behind the scenes handling logistics; liaising between vendors, clients, partners, and sales; and generally making sure everything runs as smoothly and efficiently as possible. For fun, Charlotte applies her analytical mind to movies, religiously attending screenings at the local AMC and Coral Gables Art Cinema. Or you might find her watching a Hitchcock film (or, really, anything black and white) at home, cozied up with her epileptic dog Joan, a retired racing greyhound rescue. Charlotte’s also a fan of tacos and dinosaurs.

Alexa brings extensive media account support experience to her role at MSSmedia. Servicing clients in various industries, from the public to private sectors, including government agencies, higher learning institutions, and healthcare throughout her career, her expertise enables our accounts teams to achieve client goals. As a Belarusian native, Alexa brings a fresh perspective to client accounts, helping us gain more clarity and become better problem solvers.
