Who I Am

Driven by curiosity,
guided by strategy.

I'm Audrey Merna, an Advertising & Public Relations student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill — one of the country's top programs for strategic communication.

I'm passionate about the space where creativity meets data: understanding what makes a message land, why audiences connect with some brands and not others, and how to build communication that's both authentic and effective.

Whether I'm writing a campaign brief, managing a client relationship, or exploring how AI is changing the PR landscape — I bring curiosity, care, and a commitment to the people around me and the work that I am getting ready to complete.

I’m always open to new opportunities, collaborations, and conversations.
