Hi there! My name is Lissy, I work at Squeeze Marketing as a Social Media and PR Coordinator! Our company based out of Charleston, SC, and since I’m based in Charleston, I’m a beach bum by nature! :)
Hi all! I’m Jesse, I work at Uplift Games (makers of Adopt Me, if you have kids there’s a 50% chance they’ve played our game) and I’m our Community Engagement Manager, which for us means I manage our video & social media teams.
We’re a fully remote team across the UK & the US so my favourite summertime activity is to bust out the shorts and listen out for the local ice cream van while working!
Hey, everyone! My name is Rebecca, and I work at Sonoco, a packaging company, as a social and paid media specialist. Our headquarters is located in SC, but I currently live in the Raleigh, NC, area and work remotely the majority of the time. I love the long summer days and all the outdoor functions they bring: grilling out, going to the lake or pool, walking local trails after work… Yeah, summer is definitely my favorite season! 
Hello everyone! My name is Linda and I own and operate DandeLions Digital, a digital communications agency. We specialize in servicing local municipal governments and nonprofits. Our team works fully remote but we are based outside of Philadelphia.
My favorite place to be in the summer is in the Adirondacks in New York. I’ll be working remotely there part of the summer! I also love Montana in summer (and anytime). It’s where my son and daughter in law live. We love to hike, kayak, bike and hang out by the fire in the evenings after work is done. Smores are my favorite dessert in summer.
Hello! My name is Alex - I work for the nonprofit Amplifier - we create artwork and media experiments to uplift social movements. I’m a program coordinator but also handle our social media.
My favorite summer activity is probably reading in the park or at the beach!
Hello everyone! My name is Lizzy and I work for Kirvin Doak Communications in Las Vegas. We work with many of the big names in Las Vegas. I’m an account coordinator. During the summer I love trying new recipes or reading a great book out by the pool.
Hi all! My name is Emily Hough and I am a PR & Social Media Director at Planit, an ad agency in Baltimore, MD. I’ve recently made my way back to agency life after spending a little time on the brand side. Excited to collab with others. My favorite summer activity is catching a Washington Nationals baseball game, or floating down the Potomac river in a tube! :)
Hi all! My name is Katie Maxwell and I’m the Communications Senior Coordinator for Faith in Place. We are a multifaith, environmental justice nonprofit working in Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin, and we are the proud affiliate of Interfaith Power & Light.
I love hanging out in Chicago’s parks during the summer to catch a free concert or movie!

Hello, I’m Karen, I look after Digital Comms for the Royal Society of Medicine In London, UK. My favourite summer activity is camping. Yes, even in the UK, with all of our rain… which just goes to make those sunny evenings having a beer with friends all the more special!

Our video team is primarily focused on YouTube, with a weekly commitment of videos where we act as a quasi-influencer for our own game. Any time outside of that regular video commitment they function as a support arm for our social media team (making more complex, effects/editing-heavy videos beyond the skill of our social media managers to go out on TikTok, Instagram & Twitter) and for the brand (supporting partnerships, recruitment, and general marketing goals).
We’re a small team overall, with just two full-time video producers and two full-time social media managers, so there’s a lot of overlap in general to help achieve our targets.
Hi everyone! I am a social media specialist for a global software company that helps industrial companies run their operations safer, greener, longer and faster. I am new to Sprout, based in Massachusetts and have been working in social media for 3+ years.
My favorite summer activity is relaxing on the beach with a good book and some corn hole boards.
Nice to meet you all!

Hey there everyone! My name is Kara Gooch and I’m the Community Manager for Limited Run Games. We are a video game publisher who focuses on bringing new and retro titles to physical format with awesome collectibles! We work with small indie devs and even large companies like Disney (Star Wars titles) and Universal Studios (Scott Pilgrim Vs The World).
Would love to know if there are any other gamers in here and what your favorite game of all time is. <3
Hi everyone,
My name is Abby and I am the Social Media Manager at Jabil. We are a manufacturing solutions company and we work with some of the biggest named brands. I am excited to join this community and talk social media and content with you all.
Aside from working at Jabil I also run a small Disney travel business. 
Let’s connect on LinkedIn!

Good day everyone! I’m Jennifer. I work for Gragg Advertising, an agency based in Kansas City, Missouri. I’m the brand new Manager for Social Media. We work with traditional clients but our base is mostly made up of clients in the education industry. When I’m not working, I love cycling, cooking, movies and music. Also, can’t beat Chiefs football and Sporting Soccer!
Hi, I’m Edmund. I work for a Vancouver, Canada-based company called Methanex, and I’m the Senior Communications Specialist. I’m new to corporate social media (6 months in role), and the social media aspect is actually just a small part of what I do, so I rely on the folks at Sprout and an external agency I work with to help. I took on this role because I wanted to learn some new skills, and the world of social media is a lot more complex than just posting memes, sadly. I live near the ocean, so regardless of the season, I’m usually spending some time walking by the water, listening to the rhythm of the waves coming and going. Also
