Mark Schieldrop
Writer, Comms, and Public Speaker in Rhode Island
I'm a Senior Spokesperson at AAA Northeast.
Before my current role, I was a press secretary serving the mayor and city of Cranston, Rhode Island.
Before that, I was a journalist, starting as a general assignment reporter at a weekly newspaper and ending as the founding editor of the Cranston, RI Patch news site.
At AAA, I wear many hats. I'm an oil and gas analyst, a traffic safety expert and a public speaker. I'm regularly interviewed by radio, television and digital and print journalists as an expert on gas prices, the petroleum market, electric vehicles, the automotive industry, crash and fatality data and AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety research.
