about

Hi! My name is Katie Turner. I am a recent grad from Fordham University with a B.A. in Communications & Culture and French & Francophone Studies. Here I developed and honed in on my public relations skills, such as press release writing and editing, crisis strategy and management, and public speaking skills. I also strengthened my content curation skills through designing a multitude of adverts for Fordham's United Student Government. Professionally, I applied these skills during my internships at Merchants Fleet. During this time, I created content for their social media platforms (Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn) as well as wrote press releases highlighting new hires, employee achievements, and much more. The results of these skills are demonstrated below.
