Better late than never!
Edward Lahm joined the Planet 8 Digital team back in May 2016 as an SEO Intern. After moving our office from Brownsville Road around the corner to Bridgetown Pike, we had plenty of empty desks waiting to be filled! The desire to bring on an individual with some digital marketing experience was of paramount importance, and that’s what led us to Edward. Following a two-month internship, he has become a permanent member of the Planet 8 team as a Digital Marketing Associate!
He came to us with over 8 months of experience as an SEO Intern where he largely focused on the day-to-day SEO operations for clients. While there, he gained experience using a variety of tools including WordPress, Photoshop, Web CEO, HTML, CSS, and even discovered his skills as a talented content writer. In addition, you may have seen him at the local Wawa on Brownsville Road, where he worked for almost 3 years making some of the best hoagies in town!
Currently a senior at Temple University, he is studying Management Information Systems and expects to receive his Bachelor’s Degree following the Spring 2017 semester. He has already received an Associate’s Degree from Bucks County Community College majoring in Business Administration.
With my knowledge of the business side of things gained through school, and my professional experience as a web designer and SEO specialist, I hope to be a key member of Planet 8 for years to come!
Outside the office (well, actually sometimes inside too), you can find him playing the bass guitar as a member of the Levittown-based rock band Presidential Top Knot. Starting out playing guitar over 10 years ago, he made the switch to bass in 2011! Besides music, you can usually find him brewing and/or drinking craft beers! His brother got him into the world of craft beer and has been to almost every brewery in the Philadelphia area.
With Planet 8 Digital, we hope he continues to utilize his skills as a writer, web designer, and SEO specialist as he continues to help the company grow!
