Hey, it's me. 
Kristen.
Welcome to my blog. I’m initially 
starting this blog as part of my course requirement for Marist’s Integrated 
Marketing Communications M.A. program, but I’m excited to also share fun updates 
on my wild and crazy career as a PR girl living in The Big Apple, 
too.
First things first – a bit about 
me.
I graduated from Marist in 2009 with 
Bachelor’s degree in Communications with a concentration in Public Relations. 
Since then, I’ve worked in the public relations industry, both agency and 
in-house, developing fully integrated strategic campaigns for top international 
brands including Procter & Gamble (Pantene, Head & Shoulders, Tide, 
Duracell and Pampers), Diageo (Guinness, Jose Cuervo, Butterfly Kiss Wines, 
Stark Raving Wines and Smirnoff Ice), Starbucks and Cracker Barrel cheese, among 
others.
I currently work as the PR Manager 
for Tissot Swiss Watches, owned by Swatch Group USA. Responsibilities include 
pitching lifestyle and trade accessories writers, planning large-scale global 
events, working with Tissot brand ambassadors and maintaining their stellar 
brand image. I’m working on my French for a trip to Switzerland in March for 
BaselWorld.
In my free time, I’m planning a 
wedding for September 6, 2014 so we’re busy, busy with all the little details. I 
thought from working in PR it would be a cinch, but 300 guests later we are 
rivaling the royal wedding! Luckily I have an amazing fiancé and wonderful 
family, so it’s all been a blast.
I’m looking forward to hearing your 
thoughts and comments on this blog.
