MERRITT
NORRIS
Hi my name is Merritt! I’m originally from Houston, Texas, and graduated from The University of Texas at Austin with a B.S. in Public Relations and a minor in Business. I was a proud member of theTexas Media & Analytics program. I have a solid foundation in public relations, strategic communication, digital metrics, integrated communication management, campaign strategy, and more. I have an innate passion for multimedia brand storytelling with a foundation in data-driven strategy.
My fondness for connecting with people allows me to gain diverse perspectives and make genuine connections anywhere I go. I'm always looking for unique ways to capture the world around me, whether it's digitally or through writing. My experiences as Marketing Communication Coordinator, Editorial Assistant, Digital Intern, Director of Public Relations, and Social Media Manager have provided me with first-hand experiences in the communications industry. As a highly driven individual, I am constantly seeking opportunities to expand my knowledge while maintaining meticulous attention to detail and staying organized in everything I do. In my free time, I love spending time with my friends, hosting get-togethers, walking the trail at Lady Bird Lake, baking sourdough, or trying new restaurants to feature on my foodstagram account, @merrittsmunch!
