Meredith and Elizabeth Twins for a Day
Fellow PR team member, Meredith Schneider, and I were twins on Monday. We knew we had the same blouse, but neither called the other to say we were planning to wear it. I guess great minds think alike! We had a good laugh about it.

If you’ve never eaten at Sunflowers Café on West Peace Street in Raleigh, September would be a good time to visit. Our own Ann Neely will have show of her latest ‘Plein Air’ watercolors on display at Sunflowers through September.
All of these works are of Raleigh or North Carolina historic neighborhoods, painted ‘en plein air’ (outdoors).
- ‘500 Blount’ was juried into the Raleigh City Museum’s ‘Historic Landmarks of Raleigh’ show which ran through the summer
- ‘Devereux Street’ took first place at the 2010 Raleigh ‘Paint-Out’
All the work has museum quality framing, and is ready to display in your home. Ann will be there on First Friday and would love to see you there!

Media tours, blog posts, new product introductions, tradeshow support, speaking engagements, book promotions, event marketing, bylined articles, Facebook Pages, press kit materials,…Jessica has done it all. She is a strong writer, a media hound, and a meticulous project manager. That is why she has earned herself a promotion to Senior Account Executive.
Straddling two different departments, Jess has her hand in both public relations and social media marketing — which her clients and fellow teammates benefit from every day. We love that we can count on Jess to get the job done, but also to provide some humor along the way.
Congratulations Jess!!
