Introduction
I just graduated from Boston University in May with a concentration in public relations at the College of Communication. I started my professional career as Social Media Coordinator at Schneider Associates, an award-winning public relations agency that embraces new media's profound impact on marketing and PR, and now I'm looking for something to fit the new change in my life.
Interest
Professors and guest lecturers like Larry Weber sparked my interest in social and new media last fall, 2007 semester. Since then, I have taken a class at BU (New Media and Public Relations), monitored trends, read books and tracked blogs. Now, I'm lucky enough to make it part of my career!
Blogging
I created my main, personal blog, Pamelog, in November, 2007. With the tagline, "mouthfuls of (social media) mutterings," Pamelog offered my insight into and experience with topics relating to new media's impact on public relations and marketing. I've also been more actively writing for a group blog (Our American Shelf Life) about being a "digital native." I formally mangaged both the Schneider Associates corporate blog, LaunchPR, and the blog of SA's newest social marketing offering, Mommies Clique. Most of my blogging time lately has been invested in the newest addition to my blogging repertoire, Little Baby Lump, which is about an important recent shift in my life!
Other Passions
My life is not completely centered around public relations and social media, although you can learn about most of my other hobbies through my social media utters. Some of these other passions include running, health and fitness, which are staples in my life. I completed my first Half Marathon in October, 2007, and I've been a vegetarian for almost a year.
