Hi, I’m Maddie!

When I was in college at the University of Central Florida, I was set on being a teacher and using my love of relationship-building and storytelling to impact my students. In 2020, I decided I needed a change and switched to public relations. I planned on using my skills to work with small businesses and help them grow, and I was excited to switch gears, but living in the unknown throughout the pandemic made it hard to get experience.

After interning in hospitality, marketing, and nonprofit industries and getting my master's from the University of Florida, it was time to find a job. I quickly realized that the market had gotten even more competitive, and I needed to get creative. After working at a news station and then as a publicist for an agency, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I’ve used what I’ve learned and my love of pop culture to create new opportunities to gain experience while looking for a new position.
