Pamela Powell

Senior Account Director

Pam’s expertise, attention to detail and unmatched client care for those in the higher education, parks and rec, finance, construction, environmental consulting and economic development sectors has led to a successful public relations career that got its start nearly two decades ago. Her forte is developing and implementing targeted media relations plans and that enable her to capitalize on established relationships with national, trade and local media to generate extensive coverage for her clients. Pam possesses a deep understanding of what specific reporters and outlets are looking to cover and works hard to ensure clients get the brand awareness they are expecting.

One of Pam’s greatest strengths is her ability to adapt her writing skills across multiple mediums, matching the voice of clients representing many different industries. Outside of drafting traditional media materials – like press releases, media alerts, bylined articles and commentaries – on behalf of her clients, she has extensive experience writing copy for brochures, newsletters, websites, ads and direct marketing materials. She also works closely with partnering creative firms to coordinate the design of these materials. She is also experienced in coordinating and purchasing targeted advertising on behalf of clients who need the assistance.

Pam holds a Bachelor of Journalism in Strategic Communication from the University of Missouri-Columbia. She lives in South County with her husband and their two sons.
