Welcome to my digital writing portfolio! I am Winnie Leahy, a junior at Washington and Lee University. As part of my Mass Communications minor, I completed PR Writing, a strategic communications class in which I simulated the position of an in-house PR specialist at a fictitious environmental consulting start up, Solvent Blue. Solvent Blue helps clients reduce their carbon footprint and meet their environmental goals. Read more about Solvent Blue here.
In my 12 weeks as a PR Specialist, I created weekly deliverables to communicate the company’s purpose, announcing partnerships, managing reputation, and building a brand for Solvent Blue through weekly deliverables. From press releases to success stories, I got a real taste of in-house PR work. All my work for Solvent Blue can be found under the “My Work” tab in the header. Enjoy!
