Introduction Printer’s ink entered my veins as a jr. high cub reporter and has continued to pulse through interviews from the well-knowns to the glad-to-have-knowns. I have reported the gamut of community news, and I have shot my share of grizzly crash scenes, freighters blown ashore in blinding Nor'easters, and players sensing victory in their inaugural lacrosse season. Within PR, I was set on fire by the best professor and mentor, OSU's late Walt “Wonderful” Seifert. Likewise I am anxious to ignite the next generation of PR professionals. In that vein, I author blogs, provide workshop presentations, and mentor students and young professionals. I am a believer of lifelong learning and each year brings new adventures ~ I’m working on my Aladdin list of enjoying the top coasters with my sons, the most decadent of desserts with my daughters and the journey of a lifetime with my husband.
