As a Media Relations Assistant for the State Fair of Texas, I helped amplify the Fair’s nonprofit mission and community impact through strategic media outreach and storytelling. I worked closely with outlets including WFAA, The Dallas Morning News, and the Dallas Observer to coordinate interviews, manage media requests, facilitate press opportunities, and connect journalists with compelling stories about the Fair’s programs, partners, and commitment to giving back to Texas communities.

One of my favorite experiences at the State Fair of Texas was touring comedian Anjelah Johnson around the Fair, introducing her to our nonprofit mission, and sharing some of the Fair’s iconic foods along the way. It was a memorable opportunity to represent the organization, share the impact of its community initiatives, and bring the Fair’s story to life through a personal, behind-the-scenes experience.
