• Track communications projects in motion and maintain up-to-date status in a fast-moving business environment. 
• Support brand activations and events from planning, conceptualizing to reporting back results.
• Identify emerging topics and trends in the consumer space. 
• Work with the creative team and graphic designers to create a variety of materials to aid in our external communications efforts.
