She is well-versed in crafting compelling strategies, distilling complex subject matter into key messages and engaging narratives, and integrating content through communications channels and media relations to enhance a company’s public perception.

Away from work, you can find Hailey with her husband, four-year-old daughter, and dog, enjoying the beaches or mountains in North Carolina, traveling abroad any opportunity she gets, or just trying to squeeze in a nap – life is about balance, right?

Kaitlyn is a Senior PR Director with a wide range of experience, including PR for state government and political campaign management to B2B tech and nonprofit work (and everything in between). With media relations as her specialty, she’s at her best when clients treat PR like the team sport it is. She loves partnering with companies who dream big and aren’t afraid to roll up their sleeves alongside her.

Outside of work, you’ll find her covered in flour working on her latest sourdough recipe while blasting Taylor Swift, chauffeuring her three tiny dancers to their next class (all likely with her laptop in hand), and escaping to the lake house in Virginia whenever possible.

Recognized as a Top 100 PR Professional, Amber is passionate about helping companies build credibility through storytelling; sharing not just what they do, but why it matters.

When she’s not crafting pitches, she’s with her two adorable kids, balancing dance and baseball schedules, and enjoying beach walks in her favorite place on earth, San Diego.

As Sr. PR Manager, Camila spends her days perfecting the art of the pitch.

When she's not crafting pitches, you'll find her exploring every corner of her native Buenos Aires through the lens of her beloved Olympus (film is not dead!), or working through her ever-growing Google Maps list to find the best spot to "merendar.”
