Content Specialist
Courtney Mullen
Growing up with a father in agronomy, Courtney is no stranger to the green industry. Summer breaks were spent helping to collect data at test plots and visiting nurseries and golf courses. Despite mostly tagging along for a lunch trip to Burger King, she did gain insight into turfgrass and ornamental science and developed an appreciation for those that make their living in this industry.
Courtney is a graduate of Ball State University with a B.A. in Spanish and has a Social Marketing Certification from the Hootsuite Academy. At Xylem Marketing, she combines her love of reading with her passion for writing to create marketing content, including blogs, press releases, and web copy. She is the mom of two girls, a huge B movie fan, and can now drive herself to Burger King.

Graphic Designer
Victoria Carter
Victoria’s love for art and storytelling led her to believe she would grow up to be a graphic novelist. Later on down the road, she found a better fit for her and her interests in the form of graphic design. She went on to graduate from the University of Indianapolis with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Visual Communication Design, and the rest is to be continued…
A keen eye for print and publication design is what Victoria brings to the table at Xylem Marketing. You can catch her working on the layout for a new catalog, designing an ad, or drafting a product label or two.
