I am the Sr. Manager for Social Media Marketing at Webtrends. In this role I am responsible for the corporate social media program, social media marketing support on campaigns, research and development of social media tools and practices, and subject matter expert for the company. Prior to joining Webtrends, I was a New Media Strategist at Voce Communications. During my time there, I developed social media PR strategies for Intel, BEA, Socialtext, and more. In 2007, I contracted with Jive Software to establish their social media marketing program. And from 2001 to 2006 I owned a web development company before being recruited by Nemo Design where I worked on their Nike and HP accounts.
As an involved member of Portland, I have served on the boards for Legion of Tech and Artists for the Arts. I am also the founder of Beer and Blog, an organization which has grown into 18 chapters stretching from Portland to Tokyo.
I hold a degree in Advertising from the University of Oregon. My wife Christine and I live in Multnomah Village with our 2 dogs. My online activity is aggregated at http://justinkistner.com.
