Well, I could say I am here because someone told me I really should do this. Or, I could say that I finally succumbed to the curiousity about blogging and figured, "what the heck?"
But, in brutal honesty, I am here for professional reasons first and foremost. I'm not sure how it will unfold, but I am seeking an outlet to discuss things I see on a regular basis. When I was teaching public relations courses at USF, I was a fiend for the learning example. I clipped newspaper articles constantly. It seems like there is always something going on in the daily news that pertains to public relations in some way ... so I might go on about things in that strand of thinking.
Or, I might feel like getting personal. I am a mother of two girls, one who is 5 and the other who is only 9 months. Both bring great humor and joy to my life, as well as great stress from time to time. Who knows what I might spew out about them?
So, it's sadly sort of a huge accomplishment for me to take time to create this blog. And it was so easy ... I don't know why I waited so long.
About Me
- Julie Heidelberg, PR Consultant
- Tampa, Florida, United States
- I'm a lucky person who found her professional niche early in life. High school journalism was my route to PR, and although I wrote for newspapers in college, I never pursued that role. Instead, I read a book, What Color is Your Parachute, and decided PR might be more to my liking. I didn't really even understand what it fully entailed at the time, but I soon learned in my first "trial by fire" job at The Salvation Army and I have never looked back on my decision.
