Hello! I am a professional Public Relations and Communication Strategist specializing in social media, public events/programming, relationship building, and marketing and promotions. In my ten-year tenure at the Library of Congress, I have worked as a Copyright Specialist at the U.S.
Office, and as a Public Affairs (Liaison Specialist) at the Veterans History Project (VHP). At the VHP, I initiated and nurtured stakeholder relationships in government, military, private, and academic sectors, to promote VHP's mission to collect and preserve oral history interviews of U.S. military veterans. In turn, this bolstered the permanent holdings of the Library of Congress.
I also authored press releases, fact sheets, and articles for the Library of Congress newsletter, The Gazette, as well as social media content for the VHP, Library of Congress, and American Folklife Center. I am a very hard worker and would be humbled and honored to work for the Smithsonian as an Advancement Communications Specialist.
As a Public Affairs (Liaison) Specialist at the Library of Congress Veterans History Project, I performed the following knowledge, skills, and abilities:
I hold a master's degree in Communication, Culture & Technology (CCT) from Georgetown University. CCT studies the impact of technology on society, using tools from multiple disciplines to develop fresh insight and solutions. My major focuses were on women's studies, art and representation, identity, and music and communications.
