Here’s my second interview at the the Mercedes-Benz Bridgehampton Polo Challenge on Saturday, August 28, 2010. Sheila Marikar, Entertainment Reporter/Producer at ABCNews.com, was kind enough to interview with me regarding the importance of building a relationship (the right way) with the media.

On June 11, I had the best post college experience that I could ask for and attended PRSA’s T3PR Conference in New York City. Having been a PRSSA member that attended a conference this past February, I was completely blown away from what I experienced. Between my moving back home, I unfortunately missed the pre-chat [...]

It was a wonderful trip to Washington, DC.  A trip I will never forget thanks to my friends at the PRSA CHE Summit and Shonali Burke (@shonali) for putting together the IABC Tweetup at Ceiba.  I even got in a little sightseeing, which for me, when I travel rarely happens.

It was Saturday morning and I woke up to 8 inches of snow. It was only 7:00 a.m. in the morning and the weatherman was predicting more snow, anywhere from 12 to 18 inches for our area. I knew the snow was coming, but didn’t think it would hit that hard and with so much force (blizzard like conditions). Of course, it wasn’t just any old Saturday, it was the Saturday of Event Camp and I needed to be in New York City at the Roger Smith Hotel for a 4:00 p.m. presentation.

I’m really excited about Event Camp on February 6th. I’ll be traveling into NYC and speaking at the Roger Smith Hotel to discuss best practice Engagement Strategy for events (from planning your event to measuring participation/engagement).
