Hey there!
I'm Emily McCarthy, a student and experienced strategic communicator. Currently, I am a senior at American University pursuing a double major in Political Science and Public Relations & Strategic Communications.
Working my way through college I have worked in a wide variety of fields including but not limited to construction, customer service, education, non-profit, and public relations.
I'm skilled in SEO, PR writing, crisis communication, and digital marketing tools like Adobe Illustrator and MuckRack. I thrive in collaborative environments and am always eager to learn and grow within the field of communications and beyond!
