About Elyse
@ElyseMerbach Hello! I’m Elyse, a South Florida–based social media Account Manager with nearly five years of experience. Originally from Michigan, I bring a healthy dose of Midwest kindness and patience to everything I do. I’m a creative and organized marketing professional who thrives on finding fresh ways to connect brands with their audiences. I’ve had the opportunity to work across a wide range of industries—from CPG and real estate to food and beverage—helping each client build a compelling, consistent social presence. Whether I’m developing strategy, managing content, or nurturing online communities, I approach every project with heart, hustle, and a deep appreciation for good storytelling.

BEYOND BUSINESS
Outside of work, you’ll usually find me soaking up the sun on the beach—either hunting for shark teeth or getting lost in a good book. I’ve always been drawn to creativity, and I love using my artistic side in everyday life through film photography and iPhone video editing. Whether I’m capturing a quiet moment on the coast or piecing together a mini travel recap, creating content is one of my favorite ways to unwind and stay inspired. I also love plants with a growing (and slightly overcrowded) indoor jungle. There’s something about being surrounded by greenery that keeps me grounded and brings a little joy to every day!
Words To Live By?: “Grow through what you go through.”
Go-To Guilty Pleasure?: You can catch me spending way too much time watching people calmly color in pages with oversized markers. There’s something oddly satisfying—and honestly, kind of therapeutic—about it.
