Figured I'd bump this

I'm a public relations professional, with extensive experience in the motorsports industry.

I'm skilled in all facets of motorsports PR - punchy, on-deadline press releases, Web content creation, driver scheduling and minding, media pitching and more. I also enjoy working to build a fanbase, helping racing fans feel connected to and invested in my clients and their on-track successes.

Most recently, I handled media and PR duties for GAINSCO/Bob Stallings Racing and its drivers, Alex Gurney and Jon Fogarty. I worked with the team from Day One of its professional life, building media exposure and fan enthusiasm as Bob Stallings' outfit climbed the ladder from upstart underdog to championship contender. I'm proud to have been part of the team's record-smashing 2007 Grand-Am Daytona Prototype championship run.

I'm passionate about my clients and the stories they have to tell. Those stories have been told in Road & Track, Sports Illustrated, AutoWeek, USA Today, SPEED TV's Wind Tunnel with Dave Despain and many other national, regional and local media outlets.

My writing has repeatedly won top collegiate journalism awards, culminating in second-place honors in the 2007 Associated Collegiate Press Reporter of the Year competition. I also have management experience, as I was editor in chief of my college's weekly newspaper in 2006-07 - one of ten in the country to be judged an ACP Pacemaker Finalist.

Of course, this being FlyerTalk, I welcome opportunities that involve extensive travel.
