Lansing, MI, US

As Communications Specialist, I managed strategic communications, digital content, and media relations for a mission-driven organization focused on education, conservation, and community engagement. From animal birthdays to conservation campaigns, if it was making people smile or inspiring them to care about wildlife, I was likely behind it. I also produced the monthly newsletter, designed graphics and signage, coordinated media appearances, and helped bring the organization into the community through outreach and PR.During my time in the role, I led a social media growth initiative that resulted in major audience expansion across platforms in just six months:• Facebook followers• Instagram followers• TikTok followers (from fewer than 100 at start)• Twitter/X followers• +1,500 YouTube subscribers (from fewer than 300 at start)My responsibilities included managing daily content and community engagement, producing multimedia storytelling (video, photo, graphics, copy), and ensuring consistent brand voice across platforms. I coordinated media interviews, handled press inquiries, and worked closely with internal teams to highlight conservation efforts, behind-the-scenes work, and key organizational priorities. I also supported crisis communication needs by developing accurate, timely messaging during sensitive situations.Overall, I strengthened community engagement, improved brand visibility, and created compelling stories that resonated with diverse audiences across digital and traditional channels.
