The Next Big Thing
I had an opportunity this week to meet with someone considering a change in careers to the field of public relations. As part of our discussion, he asked me what I liked best about working at Text 100. That same day, I was chatting with Scott Friedman, our regional director for North America, and the same topic came up. I guess the good news is, I answered the question the same way both times. ...
Being an Intern
It’s sometimes tricky to explain my work as a Public Relations professional. When people learn I’m an intern, it gets even more complicated and their first question is usually ‘Well, are you looking for a job?’.
My answer to that is ‘being an intern at Text 100 is a real job’.
Being an intern here at Text 100, not only do I feel that I am a valued member of this team, but I am reminded by...
Breaking down walls: The benefits of working in an...
If you’re observant, and I’m sure that you are, you’ve noticed some new faces in the Text 100 Boston photos. Mine was likely one of them (I joined Text in January).

Not that long ago, collaborating with offices around the world would’ve been very challenging, but these days, thanks to the technology...
We asked Cosi to turn down the music and with...
For well over the past year, we’ve had the pleasure of being serenaded (and I use the term loosely) on a daily basis by the music blaring from the Cosi shop across the street. Despite snow, rain or hurricane (seriously), the operatic ballads and smooth jazz melodies floating out of Cosi’s speakers never fails to distract us from nearly everything we do.
We tried reasoning with them...
An Open Letter to Bravo TV
Dear Bravo hiring executive,
You should consider casting for the Real Housewives of Boston. This town may not have as many platinum blondes as Beverly Hills or be as catty as New York (no offense to the NY texties!), but I think we have a lot to offer:
1. ME! I’d be a fabulous housewife. Not only can I bring the table-flipping drama, I’m also one of the few people in the Text Boston office who...
