Originally from: Carlisle, Pennsylvania

Currently live in: Burlington, Vermont

Work History/Background: Public Relations Associate at Cultivate, a communications firm based in Burlington, VT. This is my first full-time PR role as a young professional and where I currently work.

Why I Joined Yankee: I had the pleasure of getting to know the Yankee Chapter through leading my alma mater’s PRSSA chapter. I was President of Champlain College’s chapter, PRSSA Champlain. Our chapter collaborated with and learned from the wonderful professionals within the Yankee chapter which inspired me to join post-graduation.

Most Challenging PR Situation: I recently helped to resolve the rescinding of a press release that was mistakenly sent out for a client prematurely.

Bucket List Trip: I have always wanted to visit Peru to see Machu Picchu!

Hobbies/Interests: In my free time, I am a singer-songwriter and radio host under my artist name, “Abbey B.K.” You can find both my original music and my podcast “ab.stract” on listening platforms.
