On the Cusp of Celebrating its 25th Year in Business, Integrated Marketing PR Agency Elevates Talent to Manage Continued Growth
June 7, 2019, Raleigh, NC —McKeeman Communications is delighted to announce two well-deserved promotions of the agency’s senior staff.
Caroline Schmid, a highly-valued 8-year team member with McKeeman, has been promoted to vice president of the agency, making her the second-highest ranking officer of the company.
Schmid, 32, has served with CEO and Founder Kim McKeeman in a leadership team capacity since 2015.
“It’s really professionally and personally rewarding for me to promote Caroline Schmid to vice president,” McKeeman said. “Caroline flat-out gets what it takes to be a leader and to provide clients with unparalleled quality and service, and she’s been such a pivotal part of our agency’s continued growth. There’s so much more ahead for Caroline in leading our company.”
Newly-promoted Katie Parker has been similarly instrumental in the company’s continued successes. Parker joined McKeeman Communications in April of 2018, having spent the previous 12 years in the news business as an Emmy-nominated TV news producer.
“Our entire McKeeman team agrees that having Katie Parker join us in 2018 was an unexpected high point for our company in 2018,” McKeeman said. “Our team and our clients value her problem-solving approach to everything she tackles, as well as her insightful understanding of what makes news — and how it’s continuing to evolve. Being promoted to account supervisor and named to the leadership team in less than a year is a tremendous, well-deserved accomplishment, and it’s just the beginning.”
