My PR Story

Are you left or right-brained? Creative or analytical?

I never knew answers to those questions… and neither did any online quizzes, psychology tests or career counselors. I also always dreaded the question “What do you want to do when you grow up?” because how could I pick just one thing to do? I was always good at math, but I was also creative, I liked science, but I loved writing and learning languages even more. Lost in the pressure of picking a career, I tried to (unsuccessfully) fit my creative soul into the business world. Until, pushed by my fascination with stories, I found PR. 

It wasn’t just the stories themselves. It was the (story)telling, the roads that stories took to end up in magazines and on TV screens, and how one story could be told in a million ways because each person puts their unique spin on it (even by using a single different word). I’m fascinated with how those stories connect people and build our culture. 

But PR, for me, is so much more than just stories. It’s an interdisciplinary field that imperfectly fits somewhere between creative and analytical… just like me. It’s a field where no skill or piece of knowledge is useless and where amidst the chaos of ever-changing media, I thrive the most. And entertainment publicity is where all of that combines with my affinity for the arts and the fulfillment I find in being able to interact with art and share those moments with others.
