About

My Background

Originally from Atlanta, GA, and studied Print Journalism and Mass Communication at North Carolina A&T State University. Following graduation launched my career in marketing, mass communications, and meeting management in the Washington, D.C. area. I recently relocated back home to Atlanta, GA. Currently serving as the Internal Communications Manager for CARE, a global non-profit organization that serves those in need.
 

Specialize in strategic internal and external messaging, web content management and design, social media strategy, and mass email marketing with over 12 years of professional experience. Have solid experience with Salesforce, Aventri (previously called Etouches), SharePoint, Sprout Social, Hootsuite social media management dashboard, and virtual meeting platforms, including, but not limited to Zoom, Microsoft Teams, WebEx, Cisco Jabber, and Google Meet

 

As a dynamic, personable, resourceful, and collaborative leader with excellent communication skills, I envision an exciting future continuing my career in the non-profit sector.

Dejanira Cruz, PMP 

Senior Communications Specialist at AAMC

I was Tia's supervisor for 2.5 years. In that time she proved to be a wonderful colleague to me and many others at our organization. The attributes I appreciate most are her infectious can-do attitude, reliable and steadfast work ethic, and her delicate understanding of pre-med students and their needs. Tia was a valuable asset to AAMC and we were a better organization with her here.
