Throughout my career, I've gained experience in both corporate and non-profit work. Most recently, I've joined the staff at Smith Physical Therapy + as their Public Relations Specialist, helping build awareness for the brand and all the services SmithPT offers. Simultaneously, my long-standing work with Corporate Teams continues in my role as the Midwest Regional Manager and Master Facilitator of Corporate Events. In my early career at Edelman, a global public relations firm, I helped develop, execute and manage a variety of national initiatives for KFC’s consumer brand. I also assisted in the internal and national launch of KFC’s Corporate Charity, getting much desired experience in the community relations arena. I eventually transitioned to the not-for-profit sector where I assumed the role of Director of Public Relations for an Illinois-based organization focused on adolescent health education.
