The blurb:
I’m a PR professional based in Denver, thrilled to be surrounded by innovation and the mountains.
My first media placement was in American Girl Magazine (in elementary school I submitted a photo of myself and my friends in costume for a dance recital and somehow we made it in).
Since then, I have been a part of incredible PR teams at Ulta Beauty, Ketchum, InkHouse and Grasslands, working with both national consumer brands and B2B startups.
I love working with teams that share my values of curiosity, empathy and tenacity; I am ferocious in my enthusiasm for what I do. And I hate to lose.
The fun facts:
When I’m not being a workaholic, I’m…: Scouting out new breweries (no shortage of them in Denver), skiing, going to concerts, boxing and taking aerial classes at the Denver Circus Collective.
I love boxing and aerial class because it’s physically challenging, but you also see concrete results. There is nothing like landing a punch (not on people, I don’t get in the ring yet) or nailing a new trick up in the air on aerial silks.
Favorite newsletters: I start mornings with Fortune CEO Daily, Vox’s The Goods, Retail Brew and my own newsletter, Distilled.
My first job: Operating the Dragon roller coaster at Legoland California! It was heaven and hell at the same time. On one hand I got to ride it multiple times a day. On the other hand I was spending eight hours at a time checking lap bars or making announcements on the PA to keep your hands inside the ride or managing endless lines of parents at their wit’s end. I think it builds character to have a job that involves eight hours straight of dealing with the General Public.
