Ave Maria Press is pleased to announce that Karey Circosta has been named Sales and Marketing Director, a promotion that involves responsibility for developing and implementing the sales and marketing strategies for all Ave Maria Press publications and for meeting the organization’s annual revenue goals.
Karey joined AMP in August 2003 after spending five years as a marketing manager at the Elkhart Truth, a job she took after graduating from Saint Mary’s College with a degree in marketing. In her seven years at Ave, Karey has been instrumental in helping AMP become one of the leading Catholic high school religion textbook publishers in the country, with sales that have grown exponentially over the past six years. She has also helped guide our recent growth as a well-regarded publisher of pastoral ministry resources. Named Marketing Manager in 2006 (the same year she earned her MBA), Karey was promoted to Institutional Marketing Director two years ago. Her new promotion gives her responsibility for Ave Maria Press's trade publishing program as well.
AMP Publisher Tom Grady stated, "This is a big job, and I know that Karey will bring the same skill, energy, and enthusiasm to it that she has brought to every position she has held at Ave. Please join me in congratulating her and wishing her every success."
