ASHLEY OSMECKI ’23
“I have enjoyed studying Public Relations at Emerson because of the many ‘real life’ experiences I've had. I am lucky enough to have worked with real clients to make their media kits; I ran the Rosarito Film Festival in Rosarito, Mexico, over the summer; and I completed my final capstone, where I helped build an entire PR campaign for a nonprofit over the course of a semester.”
LUCAS BABCOCK ’23
“Emerson has given me the chance to work with and learn from some of the most dedicated and lovely humans. Everybody has their own unique perspective and take on their craft and is not afraid to bring themselves wholeheartedly into the room every day. I know I have built friendships and connections that will last a lifetime.”
KIMBERLY O’DONNELL ’25
“EmComm [Emerson’s student-run marketing agency] has not only helped me learn about the structure of marketing agencies, but also about the leadership qualities necessary for the success of any organization.”
