HONORS/AWARDS
I am a public relations professional on the path to achieving my master's degree from DePaul University. It turns out public relations is the ideal way to combine my writing and customer service backgrounds. My experience spans both internal and external communications, media relations, social media, marketing and event coordination. While I have spent time on the corporate side, specifically in the fitness industry, I am eager to learn the ways of the agency world. Whether working in a team setting or tackling a project solo, I approach every task with enthusiasm and a drive to produce high quality results. My course work has taught me to believe in research and measurement. After all, if you can't measure it, did it even happen?
When I'm not working and studying, I can be found long-distance running, weight lifting, eating, reading, cooking, travelling, walking my dog, exploring my new city, eating or running to catch the next train.
