Hollywood Casino & Argosy Casino Featured Projects
Hollywood Casino Weekly Betting Previews
I created a recurring betting preview email for Hollywood Casino at Kansas Speedway that highlighted football games, NASCAR races, and other major sporting events happening in and around Kansas City. These previews broke down key matchups, storylines, and odds in a clear, engaging way that made betting content accessible and relevant to both media and bettors.
I also developed a dedicated World Cup betting preview for media that focused on the four matches taking place in Kansas City, providing early odds and timely insights to help outlets plan coverage in advance. By delivering localized, data-driven betting content, I helped position Hollywood Casino and Argosy Casino as the go-to Sports Book destination in Missouri and Kansas for football, World Cup matches, and major sporting events in the Kansas City market.
Hollywood Casino “Candy Canines” Media Advisory
I developed a media advisory for Hollywood Casino at Kansas Speedway & Humane Society of Greater Kansas City promoting their Candy Canine event and successfully secured media coverage despite an oversaturated news cycle driven by the launch of sports betting in Missouri.
By positioning the event as a community-focused, visually engaging story rather than a traditional casino promotion, I was able to cut through the noise and appeal to local media outlets already inundated with sports betting coverage. This approach resulted in earned media attention that highlighted the casino’s family-friendly initiatives and strengthened its community presence during a highly competitive media landscape.
Argosy Casino Sportsbook Opening Event
I helped organize a media and VIP preview event for The Sportsbook opening at Argosy Casino and Hotel in Kansas City, coordinating targeted outreach to local media and influencers during the competitive rollout of legalized sports betting in Missouri.
As part of this effort, I designed a custom digital invitation in Canva that clearly communicated event details, key messaging, and the exclusivity of the experience, making it easy for media and influencers to understand the news value and attend.
By pairing polished visual assets with strategic media pitching and on-site coordination, we secured coverage that highlighted Argosy’s new sportsbook and its role in Missouri’s newly legalized sports betting market—successfully standing out amid coverage from other major Kansas City casinos launching similar offerings.

I assisted in planning and organizing the Atlas9 grand opening press conference, coordinating media outreach to ensure strong attendance from all four major Kansas City news stations, along with additional local media outlets and influencers.
I supported logistics, scheduling, and on-site coordination to create a seamless media experience, while helping position Atlas9 as a must-see cultural destination ahead of its public launch. By proactively engaging reporters and content creators and providing clear event details and visual opportunities, I helped generate widespread local visibility and early buzz for Atlas9 within the Kansas City arts and entertainment community.
Atlas 9 Cinemorphia Media Advisory
I wrote and distributed a press release announcing Atlas9’s Cinemorphia: The Animated Film Festival, a new event designed to spotlight student and emerging filmmakers in animation and experimental media. The release positioned Cinemorphia as a forward-thinking, innovation-driven festival by emphasizing Atlas9’s immersive HOLOMAX projection system and its reimagined 1990s cinema environment.
I crafted clear messaging around the festival’s mission, submission process, and deadlines to encourage participation from schools and artists, while reinforcing Atlas9’s commitment to supporting next-generation talent at the intersection of technology and visual storytelling. This strategic storytelling helped establish Cinemorphia as a distinctive new cultural event within the Kansas City creative community.
Atlas 9 “TRACK TO THE FUTURE” New Years Eve Event
I supported the planning and execution of Atlas9’s “TRACK TO THE FUTURE” New Year’s Eve event, an immersive, forward-thinking celebration designed to introduce the public to Atlas9 as a cutting-edge destination for art, media, and experiential storytelling.
In addition to assisting with event logistics and on-site coordination, I developed a comprehensive media advisory that clearly outlined the event’s concept, visuals, and news value. I distributed the advisory to all four major Kansas City news stations, additional local media outlets, and targeted influencers to generate awareness and encourage coverage ahead of the event.
By combining strategic media outreach with compelling storytelling and experiential highlights, I helped increase visibility for the event, drive attendance, and reinforce Atlas9’s brand positioning as an innovative cultural hub welcoming the community into the future.
Parisi Coffee Featured Projects
Parisi Seasonal Fall Drinks Press Release
I wrote and distributed a press release announcing Parisi Coffee’s seasonal fall drink menu, positioning the offerings as a timely, lifestyle-focused story for local media. The release highlighted limited-time flavors, seasonal ingredients, and Parisi’s commitment to quality and craftsmanship to generate interest and encourage coverage. By tailoring the messaging to food, culture, and local lifestyle outlets, I helped increase awareness of the fall menu, drive in-store traffic, and reinforce Parisi Coffee’s brand as a go-to destination for seasonal coffee experiences.
Paris Brothers New Leadership Press Release
I distributed a press release for Parisi Brothers Inc. announcing new leadership within the company, positioning the update as a meaningful business and industry story rather than a routine internal change. I conducted targeted media outreach to food and beverage publications, business journals, magazines, and industry blogs to maximize traction and ensure the announcement reached relevant audiences. By tailoring pitches to each outlet’s focus and emphasizing Parisi Brothers’ continued growth and leadership vision, I helped expand visibility for the brand and secure attention across both business and food and beverage media landscapes.
Wedding Coordinator - Alli & Jake
Serving as the wedding coordinator for Alli & Jake Britton was especially meaningful to me, as they are longtime family friends. In addition to managing the full scope of day-of coordination, I was deeply invested in ensuring their wedding reflected who they are as a couple.
I worked closely with vendors to confirm details and timelines, coordinated ceremony cues and reception flow, managed décor setup and breakdown, guided the wedding party and family members throughout the day, and handled last-minute adjustments with care and discretion. By acting as a calm, trusted presence behind the scenes, I allowed Alli & Jake, and their families, to stay present and fully enjoy every moment, knowing the logistics were in capable hands.
