[Georgy] executed a great presentation for our marketing team on the intersection of digital and public relations. … Her background, experience, knowledge AND humor are a unique blend and I highly recommend for any higher education organization to work with her in some capacity.
- Gene Begin, Digital Marketing Director, Babson College
Georgy’s presentation to the communications staff at Drexel University was insightful and very helpful. She is a skilled professional, who with her expertise, can help provide a guide for social media and web strategies. Georgy is also very personable and delivers her presentation in a way that resonates with her audience. Your web content and social media teams can only benefit from a session with Georgy.
