In my position as an Account Executive at Pinkston, I have worked with the presidents, CEOs, and communications directors of nonprofit clients to generate increased visibility for their organizations, secure media interviews across a broad span of media outlets, and help identify and address their key audiences. My work includes being the subject matter expert on communications for clients, providing messaging guidance and crisis support, and being the liaison between members of the press and client spokespeople. My job is to tell both comprehensive and compelling stories for my clients while ensuring accurate and timely communications to both internal and external audiences.Working with the media necessitates an attitude of flexibility that I love, and my role as an Account Executive often includes quickly adapting to changing priorities, managing multiple projects simultaneously, and working collaboratively with my colleagues to achieve the best outcome possible. I have also researched, written, and edited extensively in my role at Pinkston, including op-eds, press releases, daily reports, and strategic communications plans. I help to meet the strategic communications needs of our clients at every level and strive to help them communicate effectively in times of crisis as well as the day-to-day.
