I am passionate about connecting people with the things they care about. As the Head of Public Relations and Social Media at MMI Agency, I work with an amazing team to lead brands in creating integrated experiential programs, social media and public relations campaigns that help to connect them with customers. As a member of the Public Relations team, I partner with media relations professionals and oversee accounts in various fields including real estate, health, fashion, energy, sports and more. Prior to joining MMI, I worked in a variety of industries including web marketing, traditional public relations, magazine publishing, sports and wedding planning. My diverse experience provides clients with a unique perspective for positioning their social media strategy and tactics within their larger integrated marketing and public relations strategy to align directly with business goals. Passionate about public speaking and education, I have had the honor of addressing the following organizations: #CMGRHangout, the Women in Information Technology Conference at Texas A&M, the Interactive Strategies Conference the CultureMap Connect Social Media series, and led the Microsoft "Hands on Social Media" workshops in Houston
