Paladin Atlanta Candidate
Communications/Public Relations Professional with Corporate and Not-for-Profit Experience
Available For:
All types of positions.
Ideal Position:
I am looking for a position which allows me to write but also allows me to strengthen my background in event planning, media relations, and publicity. I am open to working in a variety of settings with a creative environment and collaborative culture.
Past Experience:
I have experience editing publications, supervising a staff of writers, overseeing production, and overseeing a Web site. Other experience includes counseling clients to create brochures, press releases, logos, and promotional items to strengthen their overall brand. I have also assisted with coordinating volunteers and conceiving fundraisers.
Currently:
I served as editor of a campus publication with a circulation of over 40,000. I worked with 5-8 writers per issue, edited approximately 15 articles, coordinated publication, and was responsible for layout and design. Under my guidance, the publication changed from B&W with spot color to full color with a cover design, more recurring features, more contributors, and a wider distribution.
