We have some good news to share about operations here at PHPR. First, two promotions: Paul Reid is now associate art director and Susan Flyzik is a public relations associate. In addition, we've added an excellent new PR assistant, Kristen Borg.

Paul and Susan are dedicated, talented individuals, as most of you know and have experienced. Paul’s design and Web capabilities continue to grow and flourish with aplomb, even as technology changes daily. And Susan’s writing and design, work ethic and graceful tenacity are inspiring. Kristen has recently returned to her native Fort Worth after an internship in Austin, having served as an IT community outreach manager with iTaggit, a Web-based company. Her knowledge of and experience in blogging and search engine optimization certainly enhance our already strong service offerings. You can read more about them below this story.

Also, we have a great intern on board: Natalie Lawhon, a TCU junior journalism major, is our PHPR staff intern for the semester.

As we begin our third decade in business, we feel fortunate to have these individuals on board to complement our fine staff: Lauren Kwedar, Todd Howard, Marilyn Morris, Susan Flyzik, Katie Bennett, and Paige Hendricks.

Paige Hendricks founded Paige Hendricks Public Relations in 1978. Since that time, PHPR has focused on serving emerging businesses and organizations in transition, public and private corporations (for-profit and non-profit), professionals, political and governmental entities, and associations.
