Mike Morabito to Join LehmanMillet as Interactive Coordinator

Tuesday, April 08, 2008

Today, I will be leaving my current position at Paragon to join a company called LehmanMillet in a position as an Interactive Coordinator in their Creative department.

I have throughly enjoyed working with the people at Paragon Global Resources for the last 6 years, they are unique individuals who are friendly but also focused on the mutual goals of making our organization more successful. Because of the people there, Paragon Global Resources is the leader at providing the highest quality of service for their customers in a number of industries including: Relocation, Financial, Real Estate, Career Resources and Relocation Franchise Operations.

I am very proud of the company's growth and prosperity during my time there, and I am satisfied leaving knowing that it will continue to grow long after I am gone.

In addition I am especially proud of the accomplishments that I directly contributed to including working with Mary Jane Rumbley to automate the customer survey process, working with Chris Furlotte to help real estate brokers throughout the US sell homes while the housing market was in a slump, working with our various vendors to coordinate "learning lunches" with all the consultants in our Rancho Santa Margarita office and finally, pioneering a dynamic report of our company's most important numbers from our entire client base for the Senior Vice President of Paragon Joe Benevides and the rest of the Senior leadership team.

While at Paragon I was also blessed to work for my father, Joe Morabito, who is the organization's chief visionary as well as probably the most focused business man I will ever meet in my life. My Dad's mind is always working and it has been my pleasure to get a glimpse of what he is thinking in our many late night conversations about leadership, life, business and many other topics. These lessons that he has shared with me will inform my decisions for the rest of my life. In addition, I have also been blessed to work along side my brother, Brian Morabito while at Paragon. I have always enjoyed our time working together, and it has always been my pleasure to show him, on more than a few occasions, how a "real man" gets something done. These have been some fun times, and l will cherish those memories of working with him forever. While I will no longer work with them at the office, they will still be part of my family so I'm sure I will see them probably just as much as I did at work. I am really thankful for my brother, my Dad, and my Mom's encouragement to pursue my dreams and do what I love.


About LehmanMillet

LehmanMillet is the leading Marketing Agency for Device and Diagnostic medical companies such as Abbott, Bauch & Lomb, Bayer, Becton Dickinson, Boston Scientific, Medtronic, Provalis, among many others. They are headquartered in
Boston, MA, (near the historic site of the Battle of Bunker Hill). I however, will be working at their beautiful west coast location (where it never snows), LehmanMillet West, which is centrally located in Irvine, CA right on the border of Newport Beach, CA.


About the Position

At LehmanMillet I will assume the role of Interactive Coordinator in their Creative department. My responsibilities will include search optimizing websites for clients, providing analysis on web campaigns and making suggestions, developing web content, managing client's online ad campaigns and many other tasks which could include doing Video and Radio spots as well as setting up Blogs for clients to maximize the amount of exposure that their brand receives in interactive environments. In addition I will work collaboratively with the entire creative team to provide solutions to give our clients the advantage over their competition.


I am really excited about this opportunity because both the job is something that I will enjoy doing and because I will be marketing for clients that have products that ultimately help people out. The people that I have met at LehmanMillet seem light-hearted and fun but also have a passion for each of their area's of expertise.

Thank you to everyone along the way who encouraged me during the job search process, especially my beautiful girlfriend Courtney and my former roommate AJ. In addition, I want to say thank you to Stephen for offering me so many different jobs at your company, it would have been fun to work together had it been the right position for me.

I start at LehmanMillet in Irvine, this Friday the 11th of April.
I'm excited, stay tuned for more information about how I will be serving them.

-Mike Morabito

That sounds very much like something you'd enjoying doing!

Have fun at the new job!
Congratulations dude! I'm so excited for you. I hope that all the time you'll be spending on the internet means that we'll still get to chat on Gmail the way we used to do in the old days when you were at Paragon and I was unemployed. :)

How do you pronounce "Millet"? Is it "Millett," or "Millay"? And does the pronunciation affect how you view the company?
