About Me

Hi there! I'm Mackenzie, and I'm an award-winning journalist and communications professional with a bachelor's in Journalism/Public Relations and Corporate Communications from Baylor University. I have hands-on experience in editorial leadership, digital marketing, and brand strategy—and I love to write about everything and anything!

My internship roles at ADT and Four Columns Marketing have equipped me with skills in e-commerce marketing, digital copywriting, and social media strategy. As Assistant News Editor for The Baylor Lariat, I have led a team of student writers, edited content for AP style, and designed engaging print layouts using Adobe InDesign and Photoshop.

My technical proficiency spans Microsoft Excel, HTML, and advanced Adobe InDesign, and I hold a Poynter Certificate in Editing. I'm fluent in English and conversational in French, and I am passionate about crafting compelling narratives and driving audience engagement across platforms.
