Anne Dodds

Media Brandthropologist

Our intricate media plans and budgets are reflections of our “marketing ecosystem” thinking, and managing them is no small task. Anne takes our creative visions and brings them to life with market and consumer-informed media plans and budgets to execute them effectively. She’s a big reason why we’ve become one of the market’s largest media buyers. Prior to working at Brandthropology, Anne served under Joe Colucci at the Genesis Group as a media planner, where she used Strata media buying software to manage some of Vermont’s largest media accounts, including McDonalds North Country Marketing Group (NY/VT/NH) General Motors GMC North Country Dealer Group and VSAC. Anne’s artistry isn’t limited to just media planning; during her time in Asia with Matt, she was the lead international consultant to the Samsung Galleries in Korea and later Consulting Editor for United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). She then went on to head the international wing of Nanjo and Associates — Tokyo’s most prestigious contemporary art curator.

Nel Korajkic

Interactive Brandthropologist

Nel is a digital maven, with broad experience across a variety of disciplines. He graduated from the University of Vermont with a B.A. in Computer Science, but his interest in web development and coding was sparked back in high school, when he realized Facebook didn’t have a dark mode, and decided to design one himself. His knowledge and passion for editing the web snowballed from there, and he still tinkers with it in his free time. Here at Brandthropology he works across multiple disciplines to manage UX (user experience) and IA (information architecture), crafting intelligent websites for our clients. In fact, this website right here is one of his labors of love. Pretty sweet, right?

His interest in web design, development and coding sparked back in high school, when he realized coding is just one giant puzzle waiting to be solved.

The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Amelia is a student at UVM studying marketing and film, and is an integral part of our digital marketing team.

Amelia’s innate understanding of marketing principles and strategy, her passion for film and her natural proclivity for social media marketing makes her a talented, reliable member of our social media team. She’s Google Ads certified and is a key figure in maintaining our clients’ paid search successes.

Kyle Abrahams

Marketing Brandthropologist

Kyle is another one of our UVM-ers and brings a strong skill set to our team. This includes being HubSpot Inbound Marketing certified, Google Adwords certified, as well as having some serious pseudo coder skills from his classes in computer science. When Kyle is not stewarding various client projects he can be found with a good book. His bedside reading list? Of Mice and Men, The Devil in the White City, And the Hippos Were Boiled in Their Tanks, and last but not least Infinite Jest. Kyle is a native Vermonter and he loves his home state. But ask him about his bucket list and you’ll find “visiting every continent”, “going to a soccer (aka ‘football’) North London Derby at Emirates Stadium”, and “learning to fly a plane”. So the lad has some ambitions for travel. All in all, he’s a well-rounded person that brings a multitude of skills to our office & the clients we work for.

Marketing Brandthropologist

Kate is a Marketing Intern here at Brandthropology. She is currently pursuing a Psychology degree at the University of Vermont with a Public Communication minor. She brings her adaptive thinking and creative ability to the team where she helps with the crazy diversity of projects. When she’s not at the office, she can be found either working out at REV Indoor Cycling or riding her horse, Bentley. Kate can be found listening to any early 2000 hits in order to psyche herself up before workouts. She credits her strong organization skills and determination to her horseback riding career which started at the young age of 5. She credits her favorite professor, Larry Rudiger, in fueling her interest in marketing and motivating her to declare a minor in the field.
