My Writing and Research Samples
The public relations industry relies on critical thinking and strategic writing. In my professional and educational experiences, I have developed press releases, written CSR statements, and news articles. I have utilized Microsoft Suite applications and Google Suite for my writing experiences. An accomplishment of mine that I have gained from my writing samples is learning to master tone and voice for each individual brand. Below are a few of my samples:
Media Brief Sample
This sample is representative of what a PR professional working in-house as the Director of Communications or in the communications office would present to an executive at the company before an interview or press event. For a class I took, focusing on writing for Public Relations, I chose to focus my samples on the company of Chipotle. A media briefing contains all the necessary details and talking points that this executive may need to know before speaking with a journalist. My example is tailored for Chipotle's CEO going into an interview with a journalist at the Tampa Bay Times.
