Public Relations

Effective public relations is all about reaching the right people at the right time – creating a compelling story for your brand or organization and building strong relationships with key editors, reporters, producers and bloggers to help tell it. I can create a strategic public relations plan to help improve your brand’s awareness, promote your event/organization and drive business success.

From basic media relations and press materials development to complete PR campaign strategy, planning and execution, I have the experience, knowledge and network to help your organization achieve its communications goals. I have worked in some of the top local PR and advertising agencies, as well as the non-profit and corporate sectors, and I hold a master’s degree in Media Communications/Public Relations from Webster University. I specialize in local media relations and have strong relationships in all facets of the St. Louis media including print, TV, radio and online. I work with local businesses and organizations large and small to get the media attention they need to further awareness of their brands.

Writing/Editing

Writing has been my greatest passion for as long as I can remember and the one thing I have always wanted to do for a living. I work with businesses, nonprofits and agencies to write a wide range of marketing and PR materials including press releases, bios, newsletters, brochures, annual reports and blog content. I also work as a freelance journalist for a number of area media outlets including the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, DesignSTL, Town & Style, Missouri Life, STLParent.com and KDHX.org. If your organization has a message to convey, but you have trouble putting it into the right words, let me help tell your story through succinct, convincing copy.
