Background
When work gets overwhelming, Kendall McCarthy is quick to support her teammates and encourage them to keep dreaming big. As Public Relations Intern for Piper & Gold Public Relations, Kendall is focused on synthesizing research to transform data into engaging stories.
Kendall is all about kindness and inclusivity, and she strives to focus her communications through those lenses. As a student practitioner, she continually looks for opportunities to expand her skillset while adding value to her clients’ work.
Kendall is a junior at Texas Christian University, double majoring in strategic communications and French. Before coming to P&G, she was an influencer relations intern for a marketing platform that transforms the way brands connect with social media influencers.
Outside of work, Kendall enjoys a good balance of reading and checking out $2 margarita night in her favorite Mexican restaurant in Fort Worth, Texas, where she goes to school. And she’ll never turn down a “New Girl” binge night that includes chips and queso.
