Public Relations
Story Tapestries Capstone
As a senior at American University I completed my capstone in partnership with Maryland nonprofit, Story Tapestries. This community-based class gave me the opportunity to work with a real client and play a part in the success of their end of year gala. As lead of the Outreach and Advocacy Team, I organized the invites for over 200 politicians and community members, and created a panel on the impact of the economy on the arts and mental health. At The Maryland Gala I helped with main stage photography, and later presented all of this work in a final presentation for our client.
Whoop x US Open Event Management
In the class Event Management, I learned the ins and outs of the logistical necessities of event planning. As a final project my group planned an executive retreat at the 2026 US Open for the c-suite of Whoop athletic bands. We put together a Run of Show, travel tracker, budget, and creative samples. My individual contributions focused on the run of show and mock-ups.
Pepco Holdings Inc
As the Marketing and Communications Intern at PHI, I led an internal and external celebration of Intern Appreciation Day. One element of this was interviewing executives and producing short videos for social media. I also wrote for their blog, The Source, with the opportunity to talk to those who began their careers at PHI with internships; these interviews are linked to the buttons below the videos.
Levain Bakery
In the class Public Relations Writing, we used Levain Bakery as a sample client to produce materials for. I credit this class with teaching me all the different pieces of PR work. From media alerts and email pitches, to travel itineraries and media calendars, I got to explore the different roles PR professionals play in the world.

Consortium of Liberal Arts Colleges
I created a proposal for the Consortium of Liberal Arts Colleges to increase their attendance after falling rate of students interested in the liberal arts. Using a strategy of connecting the universities within the consortium to highlight opportunities and alum, I proposed a webpage addition to university websites.
