Deanie Levine

Director, Head of Customer Lifecycle, Pond5

New York City

Deanie started her career in the arts - after completing a major in Art History and working with galleries in New York, Philadelphia, and Italy, she landed at the online marketplace, Artnet. It was there that Deanie transitioned into a project management role, eventually choosing to leave the arts professionally to work as a Project Manager for an ecommerce development agency. Now, after several years in the stock media space with Pond5, Deanie leads their Customer Lifecycle team, taking a customer-centric view into the strategy and management of Pond5's marketing functions, acquisition channels, and more.

Deanie enjoys the process-oriented nature of project management and operations and feels strongly that communication is the key to its success. She believes it's the fundamental soft skills like communication, organization, and more that allow you to build strong relationships, advocate for yourself, take on career transitions, and take ownership of your success.
