Assistant Account Executive

If you weren’t in PR, what would you be doing?

If I wasn’t in PR, I would love to work in the fashion industry! Ever since I was a little girl, I have had an affinity for dressing up. To me, there’s no better feeling than the confidence I get when I know I have a good outfit on. My interest in this industry only grew stronger when I took a luxury fashion course in Florence, Italy. I learned all about the history and inner workings of fashion through my professor and the trips we took to iconic landmarks such as the flagship Salvatore Ferragamo store in Florence, the Armani Museum in Milan, and the Gucci Garden.

Where did you grow up and what was it like?

I grew up in a small town in Colorado called Lyons. The population is just over 2,000 people, so it is a very tight-knit community, which I love. When I was younger, we often went tubing in the St. Vrain River, hiked the trails in the area, camped out, and took day trips to Rocky Mountain National Park, which is only about a 30-minute drive from my hometown. I miss it every day and always look forward to going back!

Favorite travel destination?

Florence, Italy, without a doubt. I got the incredible opportunity to study abroad there in 2022, and I made memories I will never forget. I traveled to many other places while I was abroad, but nothing compared to Florence in my eyes. The charm of the city, the people, the food, and the culture were just a few parts of what made it so great. I hope I get the chance to go there again soon!

What do you do for fun outside of the office?

I love doing yoga, going out to eat with friends, watching live music, and hanging out with my cat Honeybun.
