I crafted pitches and contributed to press releases, participated in brainstorms, attended client campaign development meetings (in-house team meetings and client calls), guided journalists and photographers during photo shoots, maintained correspondence with journalists, modified clients' websites, monitored clients' Facebook and Twitter accounts, optimized feedback on ideal web content for clients' Facebook and Twitter profiles, created media lists (national and international), prepared press materials, researched publications, industry news and clients' competitors, clipped placements, and performed other administrative duties.
