Katie Green’s Summary

I have a variety of Public Relations/Digital Marketing experience focusing on corporate and consumer accounts in multiple industries. Most recently, I focused on developing digital and social media programs for corporate communications through strategies and tactics online, primarily targeting women online. In this time, I have developed experience with overall brand management using traditional and digital/social media relations and closely analyzing traditional media and online conversations. I have been responsible for the management of interactive media development, video production, web site production and user-submitted contest management. I have also managed an SEO/SEM campaign for a top casual dining company. On a daily basis, I have been responsible for managing multiple projects, contributing to new business development, developing creative strategies for consumer engagement, and office humor. :)
