“I am beyond excited to welcome these two outstanding women to the SMACK! family,” comments Elisette Carlson, Founder of SMACK! Media. “As a first team All-American in rowing and endurance athlete, I have followed a model to hire athletes because I respect and admire the discipline, tenacity, competitive drive and above all, the ability to implement a strategy into action. We fuel on this as a team and by implementing these ‘athlete’ traits into our work, we push each other every day to deliver the best we can for our clients.  Equally as important, we are able to speak to our clients’ brands and products in an authentic manner. ”
