Client Spotlight: A story like this doesn’t need much help getting attention…it just needs to be told well.👏

Emily Drake, a 100-year-old World War II veteran and longtime supporter of the Pittsburgh veteran community, began her journey at what was then the Robert Morris School of Business. In 1944, she left her studies to enlist in the Women’s Army Corps, serving as a stenographer and documenting the lived experiences of soldiers during wartime.

More than 80 years later, Robert Morris University honored that decision and her lifelong commitment to service by awarding her an honorary degree during the 2026 Spring Commencement.

When our team heard this moment coming together, we knew it had all the elements of a powerful earned media story. We focused on shaping that narrative clearly and authentically to ensure it resonated beyond the ceremony itself.

Proud to see Emily’s story resonate in the way it deserves:
