ABOUT ME

Portrait of Mary Ohanyan

Born in Los Angeles and based in New York, Mary Ohanyan is a Social Media and Project Manager with more than seven years of experience. She translates integrated marketing strategy into social-first, platform-native campaigns. Her background in cognitive science gives her a deep understanding of audience behavior, expectations, and internet culture. In her corporate communications work, she turns company news and marketing priorities into content that feels timely, relevant, and built for participation. She leads complex social workstreams from brief through execution, partnering across creative, communications, paid media, analytics, and agency teams. These collaborations shape editorial programming, define success metrics, and translate performance insights into stronger future strategies.

Classically trained in piano since age five, Mary has a musical ear for rhythm, tone, and timing. This informs both her creative instincts and real-time decision-making. A Spotify Premium member since 2017, she is rarely without one AirPod in, a habit she considers equal parts personal ritual and ongoing audience research.

The Challenge

First Festival Activation

Camp Flog Gnaw marked Zankou Chicken’s first festival activation. The challenge was to introduce the brand in a crowded, fast-moving environment while building a recognizable presence that still felt distinctly Zankou.

Business Priorities

The activation needed to recruit creators and influencers, establish a cohesive branded footprint, build awareness with a new audience, and turn festival traffic into sales.
