Background

Job Description

I lead a team to develop and execute communication strategies for healthcare and education companies. This includes counseling clients, developing compelling stories that will resonate across different channels (social media, news media, events, etc.) and supporting my teammates in their professional growth.

Company Description

RH Strategic is a communications firm based in Seattle and Washington D.C. We design communications campaigns that prioritize strategy, creativity, and efficiency to achieve meaningful business objectives for our clients. We specialize in healthcare, technology, and government sectors.

Employment History

Prior to RH Strategic, I worked in marketing at Accolade, a health tech company based in Seattle. I also serve on the scholarship committee for the local PRSA chapter and as a coach for Girls on the Run, an evidence-based program that inspires all girls to build their confidence, kindness and decision-making skills.

Education

Mentoring Objectives & Scope

I believe mentorship is a partnership and it is important to determine objectives together. Areas that we might focus on include exploring different career pathways within marketing / communications, refining a resume, networking / interviewing practice and tips, and how to tell an effective personal brand story.

When and where do you hold meetings with your students?

Hybrid (mix of in-person and virtual). I can meet in downtown Seattle, at Seattle U, or on the eastside (Bellevue, Seattle, Snoqualmie, etc.).
