Hello Everyone,
This week in my public relations class we had the privledge of having in a wonderful speaker Trish Skram. Trish is the public relations and media specialist at Mercy Health Care in Janesville, WI. Skram is a University of Wisconsin – Whitewater alumni who majored in Public Relations and Marketing, and has taken all of Ann Knabe’s wonderful life long lessons of public relations to good use in the field. Trish was hired after and internship with Mercy when she was a junior in college, she believes that internships are crucial in helping decide what area of public relations one is interested in.
Skram is a professional blogger for the Janesville Gazette along with having her own website http://www.trishskram.com. Skram has listed reasons about why social media & blogging strategies are grow your network, help to better the public relations/communication industry, and talk about what she knows and loves. Her insight into how to get attention driven to your own blog and what are some good topics for us to write about such as young professionals in the public relations world today. Skram gave us wonderful examples of how to get our blogs out there by using Facebook and Twitter (@TrishSkram).
I enjoyed Skram’s wonderful enthusiasm, energy, and passion that she holds for her job at Mercy. It’s clear why she’s so successful at her job at Mercy and as a professional blogger.
Have a great day!
Becky
