Career history: Worked for an affiliate, PR News Service, in the early 1990s. Joined PR Newswire in 1995. Promoted to current role in 2005, as first product manager for PR Newswire.
Says Sarah: "The internet changed so many things, and I no longer get a blank look when I say I work for PR Newswire. Ten years ago, we were a mystery; now we're a household name (almost). I was the national market manager for technology during the dot com boom, so I had a ringside seat to that entire spectacle. It�s a cool business the market always has a new twist or turn to keep us on our feet, so in 10 years a lot has changed. We still have the same tremendous culture we had back in 1995 though, and many of the same people, too! The fact that you can't go to any meeting without bumping into a company veteran speaks volumes about PR Newswire. People who succeed here are inquisitive, show a lot of initiative, and like learning. Everything is always changing, and those who embrace change will always be well positioned for success." |
