| Barbara Schmick has joined Berkshire Money Management. |
Schmick brings diverse experience in administration, planning, and coordination, as well as sales, marketing, and corporate communications to BMM. In her new position, she will work closely with the firm's advertising and marketing agency, handle event planning, and serve as a liaison to the local business and residential communities.
Berkshire Money Management launched in Pittsfield in 2001, and manages more than $180 million for clients throughout the Western Mass., northern Connecticut and New York Capital regions.
Schmick has a long career in the medical and pharmaceutical industries. As an event planner responsible for the design and implementation of hundreds of medical-education programs, she has arranged and managed seminars for physicians from Bangkok to Boise, Idaho, before relocating to the Berkshires region.
"It was an exotic, stress-filled career but I had the time of my life," she recalls, noting that she also was a partner in her own firm, where she managed all aspects of account services, including program design, faculty and audience recruitment, site selection and the development of invitational materials.
Schmick is also a professional photographer and has shown her work at several important exhibitions. And as a photojournalist, her photography has graced the pages of several local newspapers.
In 2003, she moved to the Berkshires full time and worked at a consulting group in Troy, N.Y., first as a client coordinator and then as an executive partner in the office of the president.
