Public Relations
Starting my academic journey at DePaul University in fall 2018, I adjusted to a new campus, networked within my major, and discovered the 'DePaul TV Project' club. At the first meeting, I joined a modest group of five students brainstorming ideas for the organization’s quarterly development. That initial meeting could hardly foreshadow its evolution into the DePaul TV Incubator (DTVI), which now boasts over 300 mailing list members and fills theater-sized classrooms weekly.
Serving as the club’s elected publicist, I was instrumental during this period of growth by leading the rebrand, managing the organization’s social media pages, and coordinating all recruitment efforts. Additionally, this experience allowed me to hone my leadership and public speaking skills through general body meetings. I have also designed press-kits through Adobe InDesign for shorts films to distribute throughout the festival circuit. Employing strategic communication in building and maintaining mutually beneficial relationships first-hand, I appreciate the important role of public relations in the success of an organization.

U.S. Apothecary participates in coordination with other Southport Corridor businesses to host a trick-or-treat event for the neighborhood's families to enjoy.
This groovy CTA train car was crafted by the team-members of U.S. Apothecary, displayed in our window, and auctioned off as part of a fundraiser for the local Lakeview chamber of congress.
We assisted in a back-to-school event by participating in a scavenger hunt based on the class's summer reading. The display brought parents and children into the shop to collect their prizes and peruse.
The Japanese Cultural Center collaborates with U.S. Apothecary, giving us the pleasure of hosting one of the stops on their annual ikebana walk. This event culminates in a grand tour during the Southport Art festival that brings extra foot traffic into the boutique.
