"It's enough to say that I'm the Marketing Coordinator at BrightTree Studios. Additionally, I organize all our corporate philanthropy programs (and was honored with a Corporate Citizenship Award from the Pittsburgh Business Times last fall!). I'm proud to be a young professional in this crazy, important, crazy important industry. I love my company and colleagues, and have been with BrightTree Studios since June 2018. In my spare time I enjoy reading poetry, volunteering, and spending time with my family and friends."
