Adriane Smith, Director of Communications for Giant Partners, began working with the company in February 2003. Smith oversees Giant Resources, which includes the Growth Network, the Revenue Generators magazine and several other growth-related materials and tools. Smith is editor and coordinator of the magazine, and is also involved in the layout, advertising and promotion of the publication. She also works with clients to help them create their own strategic resources that will produce growth and value within their companies.

Born and raised in Edmond, Oklahoma, Smith graduated in 2002 from Oklahoma State University with a B.A. in journalism and broadcasting, and a concentration in public relations. During that time, she was a member of Public Relations Student Society of America. After graduating, Smith continued an internship with Third Degree Advertising in Oklahoma City where she assisted in the company’s marketing efforts. At the same time, Smith was serving as a substitute teacher at Oklahoma Christian Schools.

Since joining the team at Giant Partners, Smith has learned the importance of execution and results within the business world. Her hope is that the ideas and concepts of Giant Partners would infiltrate the market place, in order to continue impacting professionals in a growing area. The Growth Network is a big step in that direction.

With her desire to travel and her international experience, Smith looks forward to taking the skills she has learned overseas one day. Currently, she and her husband, Ryan, live in Oklahoma City.
