MARY FRANCES GARNER
​
welcome,
make yourself at home
I am a 2021 graduate of Auburn University where I studied business, marketing, graphic design and German. After starting my career in digital advertising at Brand Neue Company in Birmingham, Alabama, I relocated and shifted into public relations at Lou Hammond Group in Charleston, South Carolina, where I currently reside. My professional interests include creative communications, market research, campaign strategy, project/account management, branding and advertising- and I’m always looking for exciting, challenging opportunities.
That said, I cordially invite you to take a few minutes to poke around, check out my portfolio and learn more about my work experience, interests and goals.
​
When I’m not working, you can find me being active outside, taking in live music, exploring the newest museum exhibit, on the road (or in the air) visiting friends and family or on the hunt for the best coffee in town (Baba's on Cannon is currently in the lead).
​
If you have any questions about my professional accomplishments and interests, or if you just have an interesting song, article or movie to share, I’d love to
If you could only sense how important you are to the lives of those you meet; how important you can be to the people you may never even dream of. There is something of yourself that you leave at every meeting with another person.

MY SKILLS
Market research
Let's face it- we live in an age of information overload with cluttered inboxes and lives. With my background in marketing and advertising, I have a robust knowledge on how to stand out in the clutter. This knowledge has translated well into my work in pubic relations and has delivered results through my pitching efforts.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Throughout my professional and college career, I have proven myself to be a contributing team member, successful project manager and strong organizational leader. Basically, I get things done.
Branding + design
All successful brands are built on strong design. My combination of branding experience and solid design skills make me ideally suited to concept and execute design work that makes a strong impression.
