Who You Are

You live at the intersection of beauty, media, social, and culture. You know which publications and editors are shaping the beauty conversation, which creators are gaining momentum on TikTok and Instagram, and what brands, products, and cultural moments people are talking about.

You're eager to learn how great PR and influencer campaigns come together—from finding the right editor for a story and writing a compelling pitch to identifying an emerging creator, executing a major product seeding, or helping bring a brand event to life.

You're also exceptionally organized. You can move between a media list, influencer mailer, client recap, press request, event guest list, and breaking opportunity without losing sight of the details.

Most importantly, you're proactive, curious, collaborative, and hungry to grow. You're not just looking for a job in PR—you want to become a great publicist and communications professional.
