Degree:

Bachelor of Commerce Majoring in  PR and Marketing

Relevant Work Experience: 

In 2010 I completed a 10 week internship for the marketing and PR department for Guide Dogs WA. Stand out moments included the filming of a corporate DVD working with the Chair of the Foundation Board, as well as assisting photographers and liaising with clients. I played an instrumental role in the concept development of the Associations most important events of the year – the naming of their state of the art building for Stan Perron. Not so glamorous but equally as fun was taking the PR Guide Dogs out for their daily walk

Area of PR I am interested to work in:

I am becoming increasingly interested in the areas of new social media.
