During my time as a Public Relations Intern at Murphy O’Brien (June–September 2024)—named to Forbes' list of America’s Best PR Agencies—I gained hands-on experience working with a team of innovative storytellers known for elevating iconic brands and cultivating powerful media relationships. I built over 50 media lists and audits using Muck Rack to research coverage and key journalists, drafted targeted pitches for top-tier publications including Condé Nast Traveler, and wrote celebrity quotes featured in Forbes. I was also trusted to take the lead on managing media clippings and updating key documents during the release of Travel + Leisure’s World’s Best Awards—an important moment in the hospitality PR calendar—ensuring the team was prepared with accurate, up-to-date materials throughout the launch.

Supporting high-profile clients such as Auberge Resorts Collection, Four Seasons, and BJ’s Restaurants, I developed a deeper understanding of luxury and lifestyle media strategy and the level of precision required to deliver exceptional results in a fast-paced agency setting.
