Our team keeps growing! We are happy to announce two additions to the JDPR family and one exciting promotion.

Grace Daughtry, who joined us in 2024 from a global PR agency, was recently promoted from account executive to senior account executive! For the last two years, she has been instrumental in supporting the strategic growth and service of our B2B clients, consistently demonstrating exceptional dedication and commitment to the full JDPR client portfolio.

In addition to Grace's promotion, Troy Dassing has joined us as an account executive and MaKayla Renner as operations & administration manager. Troy is an Emmy Award-winning news producer who joined JDPR from a national creative and advertising agency. His experience and expertise equip him to lead our outdoor power equipment and professional trades clients with enthusiasm and a deep understanding of what makes news. MaKayla came to JDPR from the nonprofit sector, where she spent the better part of a decade supporting administrative, HR and operational needs. Her dedication and organizational experience have been instrumental in elevating our internal efficiencies.

Join us in congratulating Grace and welcoming Troy and MaKayla!

It is no secret that any company can benefit from an integrated and strategy-first mar-comm and PR plan. And while many similarities exist, important distinctions must be considered when developing strategies for for-profit versus nonprofit organizations.

While for-profits typically have a more market-driven focus, targeting specific audiences and often working in tandem with paid tactics, the priority for nonprofits is often to highlight the organization’s mission-driven purpose and reach a broader audience with cohesive yet distinct messaging. For any business to successfully achieve its goals, PR strategies and tactics must be thoughtfully tailored to account for unique objectives, target audiences and available resources.

Did you know that negative healthcare experiences are more frequently shared than positive ones? Because of this, medical facilities and the like often face online reputation challenges that require additional attention. That is part of what motivated Springbrook Autism Behavioral Health, a state-of-the-art campus and nationally-renowned program for treating autism in children and young adults, to partner with JDPR in 2021.

With the goal of better reflecting the quality of its care and strengthening its public presence, JDPR’s efforts helped position Springbrook as a top-tier autism behavioral health resource both for families seeking treatment and for highly-qualified professionals exploring career opportunities.

As the summer comes to a close, we want to recognize some exceptional team members from the last few months. This summer, we were fortunate to host three outstanding interns through our Executive Management Assistance Program (EMAP) and to add one former intern to our full-time team.

Hunter is entering his final year at , where he is pursuing his bachelor’s degree in marketing. Hunter's background in marketing research allowed him to meaningfully contribute to client work through ideation and analysis on our golf, lifestyle and healthcare accounts. Hunter came to JDPR fresh off of a semester abroad in Barcelona, Spain.

Isabella is entering her junior year at , where she has developed skills in customer service and communication. Her time with Clemson’s Events, Visits and Orientation Department helped shape her into a strong asset for our lifestyle and technology clients. A proud Hufflepuff, she recently visited England and toured the Harry Potter sets at Warner Bros Studios.

Sara Beth, originally from Georgia, is a rising junior at . She joined JDPR with experience in marketing and social media, bringing valuable skills and fresh perspectives that have been a great addition to the team as she supported our tech, OPE and lifestyle clients. Sara Beth also came to JDPR after returning from studying abroad in Dublin, Ireland.

In addition to these outstanding interns, we are proud to welcome Geovana Saraiva back to the team. Geovana worked with JDPR as a summer 2025 EMAP intern and is returning full-time as an executive management assistant. With nearly a decade of experience in the communication industry as well as a Master's degree from , Geovana, originally from Sao Paulo, Brazil, is a fantastic addition to the team.

We are honored to have had Hunter, Isabella and Sara Beth with us this summer and are thrilled to have Geovana back! We wish our interns the best as they continue their professional journey and are thankful that JDPR got to be a part of it.
