While I attended the Missouri School of Journalism with the intention of becoming an MMJ for TV, I have just entered my 10 year anniversary (!) of working in Public Relations for the financial services industry. In my current role, I oversee two of the global financial market’s most revered and iconic benchmarks – the S&P 500 Index and the Dow Jones Industrial Average at S&P Dow Jones Indices, a division of S&P Global. I’d love to share more about how I went from a journalist myself to now driving media relations strategies for the United States, Canada and Latin America if helpful for current students? Please let me know.
