What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my marketing skills in a collaborative environment, focusing on community engagement and innovative communication strategies.

I am a dedicated Marketing Specialist with over four years of experience in communications and community engagement. My journey has been marked by a commitment to enhancing brand recognition and fostering meaningful connections within the community. At The Howard Center, I successfully promoted women's health awareness, leading to a 17% increase in scheduled appointments through effective outreach and engagement strategies.

My role as a Public Relations Intern at The Topps PR Firm allowed me to further hone my skills in strategic communication and social media management. I contributed to dynamic campaigns that significantly increased client brand awareness across various platforms. Additionally, my experience at Woof Gang Bakery & Grooming showcased my ability to develop and implement marketing strategies that resulted in a 30% increase in new customer sign-ups, demonstrating my capability to drive customer acquisition and engagement.

With a Bachelor's degree in Public Relations from Kennesaw State University, I am equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to excel in the marketing field. I am passionate about creating compelling content and utilizing data-driven insights to refine marketing approaches, ensuring that I contribute positively to any organization I am part of.
