Hi everyone, my name is Alise, I am one of the junior paid-media specialists at CV Outreach. I spend my days here running the ads for our church partners.

Since starting this job I've gained a new appreciation for how that little google search bar has impacted our culture.  When I first started I thought it was crazy that I would one day be overseeing the Adwords campaigns for 100 churches.  But here I am now, a few months into the job, and I'm managing over 100 church partner accounts (and growing), and so far, over 850k people from North America and 50k people from South Africa have clicked on one of the ads I've written.  

That's crazy!

Living in this world day in and day out has changed how I think about google. I no longer take the ubiquitous search bar for granted.  Here are a few areas of my life where my thoughts about google have changed.
