A little bit about me

Welcome to my online portfolio! I’m a communications and public relations professional with experience supporting leading brands across consumer, technology, advocacy, hospitality, tourism, and education sectors.

​​

In my career, I possess a proven track record of supporting leading brands across various industries, working with clients like Microsoft, State of Washington Tourism, Columbia Hospitality, Seattle Center, Seattle Pride, Ste. Michelle Wine Estates and more. My strengths include strategic storytelling, campaign execution, media relations and performance measurement, using insights and data to refine strategies and deliver meaningful results. Leveraging my strong writing and communication skills, I craft compelling narratives, proposals and communication plans. Additionally, I monitor and evaluate media coverage, trends and insights to refine strategies and measure their effectiveness precisely.​

​

In March 2021, I received a Bachelor of Arts in Public Relations, while minoring in Business Administration at Western Washington University. My other experience includes an internship at WWU's Office of Communications and Marketing, Global Results Communications, a PR firm in Orange County, California and volunteer public relations work for ReUse Works in Bellingham, Washington. I also have experience in writing for WWU's newspaper, as well as writing for multiple sports websites and blogs, which included being featured on Fox Sports.

​

In my free time, I am building an online community through social media and events through my RainCityPride pages and as a Community Manager with Seattle NBA Fans, where we focus on rallying excitement about the potential return of the NBA to Seattle. With this, I have a personal social media brand that discusses all things Seattle sports, and I support social media content creation with SNF to grow an authentic, passionate following.
