A Bristol-based Junior Account Executive, currently specialising in travel PR for a range of clients including boutique hotel experts, quirky UK glamping structures, Mediterranean villa specialists and tour operators selling pioneering and bespoke itineraries from North Korea to Madagascar. While working at Four Corners PR I have consistently delivered press office duties, including writing and distributing press releases to secure coverage in national newspapers and consumer magazines, and have worked with journalists and influencers on several press trip opportunities.
I have acquired a strong background in the arts since gaining my MA degree in Musicology (Russian pathway) from the University of Bristol. My appreciation for different strands of culture combined with a knack for content writing can be traced throughout my professional experiences as the sole curator for a music history exhibition; interning at The Florentine – a leading Italian cultural magazine & website for English expats; assisting the editorial and communications teams of an immersive multimedia company for exhibitions in Beijing and Shanghai; and providing social media marketing for meanwhile arts spaces in Bristol.
Highly interested in acquiring skills and experience in music supervision/sync licensing for TV, advertising and film.
