What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters creativity, values strategic thinking, and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am an accomplished public relations professional with a proven track record in strategic communications and media relations. Over the past decade, I have honed my skills in leading integrated PR teams, securing high-profile media placements, and driving impactful communications strategies. At SmartAsset, I spearheaded a dynamic in-house PR/SEO team, where we consistently achieved thousands of unique earned media placements in top-tier publications such as Bloomberg News and CNBC.

My role involved overseeing the production of data-driven research studies, ensuring quality and accuracy in our messaging, and engaging directly with media outlets to secure coverage. I also led corporate communications initiatives, celebrating key milestones and securing prestigious awards for our executives and the company. My experience spans various sectors, including B2C and B2B communications, crisis management, and social media strategy, making me a versatile asset in any communications landscape.
