Season 1, Episode 3
Navah Hopkins
Our guest otaku today is Navah Hopkins. She is the Director of Paid Media at Hennessey Digital, an integrated digital marketing agency. A veteran of both SEO and PPC as far back as 2008, she now manages the strategy and execution of paid media, leading a team of paid search and paid social champions. She often appears on the international speaking circuit and contributes to blogs or webinars for SEJ, SEMrush and WordStream.
When she’s not working, she enjoys gaming with her husband, and hanging out with her pets, HK-47, Freyja, Chinook and Arhu. Much to Keith’s pleasure, she is a Sith sympathizer, but she’s also into awesome things, like Magic the Gathering, anime, manga, ren faires and metal.
