Meet Rikki Weller, our talented Marketing Executive at Info Advantage! Rikki wears many creative hats — she’s responsible for everything from social media content and campaign strategy to fun internal branding, events, and, of course, poodle-powered storytelling.
If you follow our social media, you’ve probably seen her four-legged co-stars: Charlie Chip and Dexter, her adorable mini poodles, and Emmy Lou, her sweet Bernedoodle. Together with the rest of the “IA Poodle Pack – Captain Jack, Wall-e, Kira and Pickles” they help keep our workplace playful paws-itively fun.
Creating content featuring Captain Jack and the other office pups is one of Rikki’s favorite things to do.
Rikki’s love for storytelling extends far beyond Instagram captions. She’s a published author of a young-adult fantasy trilogy:
📚 The Princess and the Locket
📚 The Princess and the Ticking Clock
📚 The Princess and the Ring of Destiny
Her newest novel, Two Sides of One Epic Playlist, is currently being shopped to publishers — so stay tuned!
Before joining Info Advantage in December 2023, Rikki built a diverse and dynamic career. She studied journalism in college, then spent over a decade writing for weekly and daily newspapers. In 2017, she shifted gears into public relations and marketing, working with non-profits and later as a Community Engagement Manager for a solar company.
When she’s not working or writing, Rikki is probably watching one of her many favorite shows. She loves a good binge — from The Summer I Turned Pretty (she’s Team Conrad, in case you’re wondering) to classics like Always Sunny in Philadelphia, What We Do in the Shadows, Bridgerton, Pretty Little Liars, Parks and Recreation, The Office, and Vampire Diaries. She also loves reality tv like The Challenge, Catfish and Below Deck, and can’t help but watch a murder documentary.
Her movie tastes are equally eclectic: Pride and Prejudice (2005), True Lies, The Wizard of Oz, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, and even Pride, Prejudice and Zombies top the list.
A lifelong music fan, Rikki grew up surrounded by a wide variety of genres. She’s especially fond of Blink-182, Maroon 5, Green Day, Ed Sheeran, and of course, Taylor Swift — her all-time favorite.
Her childhood dream? To be April O’Neil from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles — which helped inspire her love for journalism. Today, she still loves superheroes, with Captain America as her favorite (though she has a soft spot for Loki).
Outside the office, Rikki enjoys building Legos, cheering on the Toronto Blue Jays, camping with her husband Michael, and getting back into golf — a sport she played competitively in high school and college. Her favorite holiday is Halloween, and she loves to come up with multiple costumes each October. She’s already got her costumes in the works for this year. Rikki also loves traveling, and true to her Weller last name, her favorite place in the world is Disney.
Originally from St. Joseph, Missouri, Rikki moved to Lockport in 2008 with her mom and stepdad and later settled in Albion with Michael in 2021.
Creative and clever, Rikki brings storytelling and heart to everything she does at Info Advantage. We’re lucky to have her on the team!
