Emily Merritt
LinkedIn Marketing Strategist & Tick Enthusiast
Her company, Clearlead Marketing, helps B2B companies in industrial automation grow their brand presence and generate leads on LinkedIn!
However, her journey started in wildlife sciences, where she ran scientific experiments, analyzed data, and wrote research papers. She became particularly passionate about ticks and tick-borne illnesses during that time, and that interest never went away!
