BPRS NY hosts #AreYouInInc Book Signing with Nicole K. Garner

A day in the life of an intern with Kiara Joyner (Summer '13)

I remember when I first learned about The Garner Circle PR.  I admired the expertise of this agency and knew that this is exactly where I wanted to begin my professional journey as a young publicist straight out of Hampton University. After countless emails and phone calls to Daniel Dickey, I am finally here in Atlanta learning from the best in the industry that I passionately want to be a part of. 

During this semester, I have learned skills that are essential to each recent graduate attempting to break into the public relations industry. I will leave this internship a more polished, and detail oriented publicist. "Anyone can do PR, but not many can do it at this level."- Daniel Dickey
