Achievements
During my tenure at Texas State University’s research/start up incubator, STAR Park, my integrated
marketing efforts have resulted in a quadrupling in social media followers resulting in an increase in
brand awareness. My responsibilities included coordinating 74 events and planning and executing high
profile university events ranging from foreign delegation visits to large pitch competitions. As the
marketing point of contact for STAR Park clients, I served as an advisor to those seeking assistance with
public relations efforts.
