What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters creativity and collaboration, with opportunities for growth.

I am a dynamic and driven storyteller with a solid foundation in public relations and digital marketing. My expertise lies in copywriting, media outreach, content creation, and market research, all aimed at elevating brand visibility and fostering strong relationships with press contacts. I have successfully coordinated content strategies and collaborated with teams to boost social engagement, ensuring that the narratives I craft resonate across global platforms.

During my internship at Julien's Auctions, I drafted and distributed over 10 press releases and media kits for high-profile clients, including Princess Diana and Kurt Cobain. My efforts contributed to securing a segment on NBC’s Today Show, showcasing my ability to create impactful media content. As Editor-in-Chief of Peacock Magazine, I directed an editorial team to increase readership by 40%, demonstrating my leadership and strategic communication skills.
