Amanda Manupella
Amanda joined the Freedom Street Partners team in 2021 as an Administrative Coordinator and quickly shifted to Senior Marketing Coordinator at the beginning of 2022. Amanda's role has been essential to our team because she not only spearheads events that we host, which require impeccable attention to detail, effective communication skills, and the ability to manage many tasks, often all at once, she is also the lead liaison for all the ongoing marketing efforts across the company.
Amanda has close ties to our team and previously worked for our CEO, Scott Danner, as his Senior Branch Office Assistant for more than 13 years at Edward Jones before Freedom Street Partners was formed with Raymond James. During her tenure, she was recognized twice with the Edward Jones Managing Partners Award for Branch Office Assistants, which is based on client satisfaction from more than 15,000 offices in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. In 2017, Amanda pursued her photography career and has since been recognized on a national level. Prior to rejoining Freedom Street Partners, Amanda spent two years as the Operations Manager and Virtual Marketing Manager for The Small Business Marketing Studio. This boutique marketing agency focused on employing Military and First Responder spouses across the United States. The agency helped a broad clientele of companies and worked closely with chapters of the American Marketing Association, assisting small local businesses with their marketing needs. Amanda supervised and mentored the junior creative team members to ensure client needs were met.
I was born in the Bronx, NY, and many people joke that this is where I must have gotten my ability to talk fast and use my hands when I'm talking, but I've spent the majority of my life in Virginia Beach, VA, which is also where I met my husband. I'm the proud wife of a Chief Warrant Officer, Dominic, who has served 22 years (as of 2021) in the United States Navy. Since we have been together, we have been through more than 13 deployments. I'm a military spouse advocate, and I'm frequently seeking new ways to be an asset to the military family community.
Dominic and I are doting parents to our two wonderful daughters, Maya and Addison. Maya is a competitive USAG gymnast, and Addison keeps us, along with many others, entertained with her sense of humor.
When I'm not at work, I am often still behind the camera capturing milestones for families. You can also find me at Orange Theory, typically trying to get a new personal record on the rower.
My family is, without a doubt, the center of my world. I love sharing the kitchen with my husband, eating delicious foods, drinking excellent wines and bourbons, and spending evenings with my family doing a game night or watching Marvel movies.
