Laresa Thompson
Public Relations/Media Relations Expert, Spokesperson, and Leader in Charlotte, North Carolina
People who work as journalists, whether print, TV, radio or social, aren’t just ‘doing a job’, they’re following a calling and I am very proud to be one of them.
I’m a high-energy, strategic media relations and public relations professional pivotal in helping a top performing amusement park and FORTUNE® 50 home improvement company gain local and national attention from top media sources such as NBC Nightly News, the Today Show and the Steve Harvey Show. I even had the pleasure of working with the team of Oprah Winfrey with set up and preparations for the Garden Party for the late Dr. Maya Angelou (2010).
I've also spent time on "the other side" working in radio and television news.
I have a long and successful list of achievements from development of strategies to communications of all kinds to reaching out to make our community better.
