As Publicist of the iconic and trusted PEOPLE, PEOPLE En Español, and Entertainment Weekly brands, I generate widespread and impactful coverage for these leading entertainment brands’ print and digital content as well as their event franchises. In addition to my strong relationships with the media, I work closely with the brands' marketing partners on exclusive initiatives such as the PEOPLE & SAG-AFTRA Post-Awards Gala, PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive Franchise, PEOPLE & Entertainment Weekly’s Red Carpet Live shows and more.

At PEOPLE's parent company, Meredith Corporation, I also serve as Global Chair of :BLACKPRINT, the Black Employee Business Group representative of the Black voice at Meredith. My passion for diverse storytelling and positive representation of people of color in media and entertainment drives my desire to push for multicultural advancements in the industry.
As the Global Lead for :BLACKPRINT, I have reinvented the roll of traditional ERGs and solidified BLACKPRINT's standing as a business asset to the corporation's bottom line. As part of this role, Paula has created three new content series: :BLACKPRINT #NoFilter and "In Conversation With" - where Black changemakers like John Legend, Nia Long, Stacey Abrams and more speak to the importance of diversity in the media and bring those conversations back into the editorial content across the Meredith portfolio.
Additionally, as part of this role, I spearheaded :BLACKPRINT becoming a founding member of the NYC Black ERG Collective, a group consisting of media companies such as Facebook, Twitter, NBCUniversal, Viacom, among others, which joined forces to make meaningful strides towards the advancement of Black employees in corporate America through networking, community service, and mentorship.
