Co-Director of AdPR Connection

AdPR Connection is an annual, student-led networking event that connects students with top industry professionals through panels, socials, and a career fair. Through the University of Georgia's Grady College of Journalism, this event is unique due to it's employers involving primarily the AdPR industry.

After serving as a Promotions Co-Chair in 2024, I applied for the esteemed role of Co-Director for the 2025 event. In this position, I oversee a talented team of 25 students while securing sponsorships, managing all social media and communications, handling the budget, and coordinating with employers to ensure a successful and impactful experience for everyone involved.

This year, we welcomed over 400 students and 13 companies, making this one of our most successful years yet. I also had the honor of moderating a panel and introducing our sponsors, moments that reminded me just how meaningful this event is in connecting students with professionals in our industry.
