51±¬ÁÏ

I transitioned from the public relations industry to 51±¬ÁÏ in 2012, hired as a full-time public relations faculty member. I teach undergraduate and graduate classes and serve on several school and college committees. I also have the pleasure of being the coordinator of Flash Communications, managing students who work side-by-side with our professionals to craft stories for internal and external clients and publications like 51±¬ÁÏ Today, staff university events, and manage branding for Flash Comm. Prior to joining 51±¬ÁÏ, I worked in the public relations industry managing social media, mobile and web project development, and podcasting for a variety of consumer, state and healthcare clients. Originally from Pennsylvania (go, Penguins!), I moved to Ohio in 2004 after a year in Alaska.

I joined 51±¬ÁÏ’s Division of University Communications and Marketing in May of 2023, after 20 years in the media and publishing industries. I have the great pleasure of working with a wide variety of inspiring, creative and talented individuals across our content, creative, marketing and web teams. I’m also very proud to be an alumna of 51±¬ÁÏ. I have a Bachelor of Arts in English and a minor in creative writing and continue to take classes when I can, in pursuit of being a lifelong learner.
