Q&A with Bellmont Partners New Senior Account Executive, Amy Moon

For the past cou­ple of weeks, we have had fun get­ting to know a new mem­ber of our team, Amy Moon! Amy’s strong back­ground in mar­ket­ing from her pre­vi­ous roles is a tremen­dous asset to the clients she now serves at Bell­mont Part­ners. Plus, her pos­i­tive ener­gy and enthu­si­as­tic spir­it make her a great team member.

Her knowl­edge and expe­ri­ence in the med­ical device field allowed her to jump right into client work for our Health and Med­ical Prac­tice Group. We sat down with Amy to learn more about her, her back­ground and things that excite her most about life. We hope you enjoy get­ting to know Amy, too.

You have an inter­est­ing back­ground in com­mu­ni­ca­tions and mar­ket­ing. What do you like about the field of communications?

I was first drawn to the com­mu­ni­ca­tions field because I love peo­ple; I love get­ting to know a person’s sto­ry and how they’ve got­ten to where they are today. I also love that this field requires lis­ten­ing to oth­ers, under­stand­ing the whole pic­ture, and hav­ing a strate­gic mind­set when it comes to col­lab­o­rat­ing and help­ing oth­ers reach success.

You’re join­ing the Bell­mont Part­ners Health and Med­ical Prac­tice Group. What is appeal­ing to you about work­ing with clients in the health space?

I have had a long-held inter­est in the med­ical field because I loved the idea of car­ing for peo­ple and help­ing them in a time of great need. Through a series of events, I decid­ed to major in com­mu­ni­ca­tions in col­lege but inten­tion­al­ly minor in health and well­ness, hop­ing to use my com­mu­ni­ca­tion skills with­in the health­care indus­try. I am real­ly look­ing for­ward to work­ing with clients where my skillset in com­mu­ni­ca­tions and my pas­sions for health­care intersect.

What have you liked so far or are you excit­ed about when it comes to work­ing in an agency atmosphere? 

I have loved the size of our agency. Most of my life I have been part of medi­um- or large-sized orga­ni­za­tions, whether at school, church or work, so being part of a team where I have got­ten to meet every per­son and have a per­son­al con­nec­tion with them has been fun.

I am also excit­ed about the pace at which an agency moves. Get­ting to work with sev­er­al dif­fer­ent clients, there is always some­thing to do and always some­thing to help with. I love how col­lab­o­ra­tive the cul­ture is at Bell­mont Part­ners and how team-ori­ent­ed every­one is.

We know you love to trav­el and that you stud­ied abroad in Italy! What did you learn dur­ing your time there from a com­mu­ni­ca­tions standpoint?

I do love to trav­el, and my time study­ing in Italy was instru­men­tal to how I see the world today. The No. 1 thing I took away from a com­mu­ni­ca­tions stand­point was that “my way” is not nec­es­sar­i­ly the “right way.” I gained deep respect for anoth­er cul­ture and the way they do things. This mind­set has helped broad­en my per­spec­tive of the world and opened my eyes to the ben­e­fits of being recep­tive to how oth­er peo­ple view things.

How do you like to spend your free time? 

My favorite thing to do in my free time is spend time with my hus­band, Tyler, and our dog, Min­nie. Any­time we have a free Sat­ur­day morn­ing, we enjoy find­ing a new trail to walk and a new cof­fee shop to try. (It’s hard to run out of options liv­ing in the Twin Cities!) I also enjoy exer­cis­ing – swim­ming, run­ning, yoga to name a few – and my hus­band and I love spend­ing time attend­ing and vol­un­teer­ing at our church.
