What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where data-driven insights and strategic storytelling drive business impact—blending product marketing, communications strategy, and measurable analysis to strengthen positioning, outreach, and cross-functional execution.

I’m a corporate communications student with hands-on experience in product marketing and public relations, and I’m energized by turning data into strategic, story-driven business impact. At WP Engine, I presented bi-monthly research and competitive updates to 200+ employees, built competitor battle cards, and strengthened product positioning through competitive win/loss analyses and pricing audits. I also analyzed 500+ customer calls to surface emerging market trends and delivered actionable insights to cross-functional partners.

I bring that same rigor to communications by building media lists of 500+ contacts, conducting in-depth client research, and creating press releases and outreach materials in fast-paced PR and government affairs work. I’m currently driving social media strategy as Social Media Manager for an inaugural chapter—curating content, coordinating with faculty advisors, and supporting video production to grow engagement, recruiting, and community connection.
