Tripepi Smith welcomed Sophia Silane to the team as its newest Junior Business Analyst on January 3, 2023.
“I am so grateful for the opportunity to join such a driven and diversely talented group of individuals at Tripepi Smith,” said Sophia. “The team’s ability to enact positive change in local communities is truly admirable. I look forward to learning from my colleagues and contributing my skills to the same mission.”
With a Bachelor’s degrees in Studio Art and Art History, Sophia brings a creative perspective to her work. While attending Pitzer College, Sophia grew her professional experience through volunteer work and internships at art-based non-profits where she educated children on art history, contemporary art and museums.
After graduation, Sophia combined her artistic background with digital marketing as she became a full-time social media content creator and ran a profitable international business selling her art. As a creator, she produced multimedia content of her designs, processes, and completed pieces while building a strong understanding of social media management tactics. She then honed her skills further after earning a scholarship to work in Germany for a year. There she became the Social Media Coordinator for an up-and-coming vintage shop, ultimately growing the online presence of a small business and providing tools for continued social media success.
“We are thrilled to have added Sophia to our team,” said Tripepi Smith CFO Nicole Smith. “Her prior work in content creation, social media management and design will make her a strong addition to many of our projects. We look forward to watching her grow and work alongside her peers within the company.”
