Vincent's Bio
“The truth is that I am someone who knows how to connect with people simply by utilizing a much overlooked aspect in the business world...respect.”
I graduated from the University of Central Florida (Go Knights!) with a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies. My areas of focus were in business/professional writing, general law and a minor in Mass Communication. I did not go to school with the intent to become a marketer. It was through my studies in mass communication that I became aware of marketing's evolution away from mass media channels. The marketing industry had come to embrace the art of storytelling (which I loved) so I decided to pursue a career in content marketing.
I also did not plan on becoming a business owner. But that is the beauty of life...nothing is scripted. I am here as someone who has had the fortune of realizing a personal dream through the trust given to us by our clients. The truth is that I am someone who knows how to connect with people simply by utilizing a much overlooked aspect in the business world...respect. I respect the unique characteristics of all of our clients and I treat each one of them like family. Family doesn't always tell you what you want to hear...but in the end, you work together to reach a common goal. I feel confident in possessing a unique mix of creativity and a structured project management approach to meet any individual client's needs.

“The Type B to Vincent’s Type A personality, I bring the stress levels down so that our creative ideas can thrive”
It's true, Vincent and Mary are about as contrasting as two personalities can get. Mary is an artist at heart and although the success of every marketing campaign is important, she tends to let Vincent handle the strict deadline-based projects. Mary's experience in the arts and in customer service based roles in the hospitality industry have given her a great pedigree for the content marketing industry. When Vincent decided to take the leap into starting Moana Creative Marketing he immediately turned to the one person he knew could feed the business with a constant flow of creative, engaging ideas. Mary's artistic vision is a huge factor in making Moana Creative Marketing stand apart from other agencies. She knows what is appealing to the eye because her passion has always been in the visual arts. She's also that person who always seems to take the best pictures without even trying. Though education in the arts is great, there are few people who take it upon themselves to create it, promote it, and display it publicly. Mary is calm, but without fear. She knows how to listen without judgement and is a great representative of the Moana Creative Marketing brand.
