“No project is too much for Katie, and she is always willing to go above and beyond necessary tasks. I worked with her on a national initiative for PRSSA during her sophomore year of college, a time-consuming and sometimes daunting task that Katie faced with a positive attitude. She completed the project with precise detail and follow-through. Katie continuously asks for more responsibility, seeking opportunities for learning and growth even when facing several challenges. Katie’s passion for the industry, proactive approach and determination to produce quality work will be great assets as she continues serving UA’s public relations program and then the professional world. I highly recommend her for any future opportunities, which will surely arise as a result of her can-do nature.”

G. Farben retained U.S. public relations man Ivy Lee. Two peak months of stories (April and November), mostly filed from abroad, coincided with Goebbels’s consolidation of power and corroborated many of the insights that emerged from that conversation.
