I believe today's most successful brands tell the most compelling stories. Currently, I build powerful content marketing campaigns for ZURB, a digital product design company based in Silicon Valley. In addition, I lead all public relations and media relations initiatives for the company. Two major parts of my PR efforts include securing speakers for Soapbox, a monthly speaking series featuring an influential Bay Area entrepreneur or thought leader, and building out opportunities for Speak, a speaking series which empowers our employees to share design expertise around the Bay Area and greater United States. Prior to joining ZURB, I built out and executed social media strategies and digital campaigns for a variety of Fortune and startup companies. While enrolled in college, I wrote sports for two major newspapers, The Washington Post and USA TODAY.
