What’s your favorite part of your job?
In PR there is always a new story to tell and I enjoy strategizing on the most effective ways those stories can be shared. Every day presents a new challenge and I like the opportunity to work with a lot of clients in different industries to help grow and strengthen their PR programs.
If you could have dinner with a famous person (past or present) who would it be and why?
Audrey Hepburn. I find her to be one of the classiest ladies during Hollywood’s Golden Age. I also have a passion for fashion and admire her timeless, classic sense of style.
