I am the newest public relations account executive at 180 Communications, a Tallahassee-based firm specializing in national/international sports business PR.
Additionally, I'm an avid blogger, social media enthusiast and passionate PR pro who loves engaging with others both online and off.
I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Florida State University in May 2010 with a dual-emphasis in media/communication studies and creative writing.
At 180, I work with a small, but highly-driven PR team in the national/international sports business field. Our clients rely on us for media relations, media training, social media counseling, and the implementation of other campaign strategies.
I am responsible for daily clips, research, brainstorming, writing, media relations, social media integration, and more. Specifically, I contribute press releases, media advisories and op-eds, and work closely with the CEO, account manager and account executive on the completion of proposals, marketing plans, and campaign activities.
I interview area businesses and compose articles about them. When our company launches new features and services, I craft and pitch publicity materials to relevant media. I also contribute to the quarterly newsletter, edit website content, and run our twitter account.
