As a Communications Coordinator at Houston-Galveston Area Council, I support the development and implementation of communication strategies and activities for various programs and projects that serve the 13-county region we operate in. I have over five years of experience in communication and marketing roles, working with non-profit, public, and private organizations to create and deliver engaging and effective content and messages across multiple platforms and channels. I am passionate about helping communities and businesses thrive by leveraging my communication skills and marketing expertise. I received my MBA in Marketing from Saint Leo University in 2021, and a BS in Integrated Marketing Communications from my HBCU Jackson State University in 2018. During undergrad, I became a charter member of the Public Relations Association of Mississippi (JSU Chapter) where I served as the first vice president. I also became a member of several other on-campus and international organizations, like the Campus Activities Board and Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., respectfully. Outside of work, I am a member of a few professional associations, such as the American Marketing Association (AMA), the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA), and the National Black MBA Association (NBMBAA). And outside of professionalism, I love to travel with my husband and take my two-fur babies to the park.
