My name is Candace Marie Taylor and I am a senior public relations, computer mediated communications major. My hometown is Berthoud, Colo. (b-town what!!--- totally kidding) and I was born in Tucson, Ariz., a place I also call home.
Currently, I am an account assitant for CSU organization RamPR, and I am the webmaster for PRSSA. I am a public relations intern at HuebnerPetersen Marketing (a marketing firm out of Northern Colorado) where I coordinate many client accounts including Jayco RVs, Chief Builders and Vescent. My job description includes managing client trade shows, creating media kits and press releases, pitching to the media and conducting research.
When I am not working or in class, my interests include anything outdoors. I love to wakeboard, wakesurf and boat in the summer. During the winter I think about wakeboarding, wakesurfing and boating. Also, because I am 21 years old, I like to go to the bars, go out for sushi, hang out with my girls and attend as many concerts as I can. When I am lounging around at home I am usually watching the amazing shows Lost, Entrouage, Big Love, or Weeds.
During my weekly blogs I will be discussing the importance of marketing and public relations, their relationship and emerging trends within the business.
