As I write this, our newest PR intern is working hard on many of the daily activities it takes our teams at BLASTmedia to secure great media coverage for our awesome clients. Having graduated our intern program myself a few years back before going full-time, I know exactly how much Brittany is learning and how much of an active role BLASTmedia gives its interns when they begin to prove themselves.

So who is Brittany Kapps?

Nickname: B, B.Kapps, BK

Hometown: Indianapolis, IN

College: IUPUI (Go Hoosiers!)

Favorite childhood Memory: I’m a huge Daddy’s girl, and every Saturday my Dad would take me on a “date” and we would either go to dinner, rent a movie or sometimes both!

Favorite sport: Basketball – IU & Lakers; Football – Go Colts; Baseball – White Sox. (I love them all)

Favorite movie: I love watching movies, but can I change this to my favorite TV show? I seriously watch Grey’s Anatomy every single day and could quote every episode of every season!

Favorite Indianapolis restaurant: Scotty’s! I go there almost EVERY Sunday.

Random fact: I think cheerleading is a sport! Mostly because I was a competitive cheerleader for Fitness & Fun my entire life and I know how much work it is, but also because it’s seriously dangerous!

One word to describe you: Determined.

Favorite quote: “We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand!” – Randy Pausch

Favorite Social Media Site/Tool/App: Twitter. I am #obsessed with TweetDeck and making #lists because they #MakeMyLifeEasier

How would you describe your job at BLASTmedia?: It’s been a BLAST! I love that every day I get to learn something new and different from people who are as passionate about PR as I am. I have friends who didn’t get anything out of their internships, but at BLAST I like that I get to dive in and give my opinions. From the people in the office, to the clients, there is never an uninteresting moment!

What do you like to do outside of BLAST?: I usually spend time with my friends and family, whether that means staying in and watching a movie or something a little more spontaneous – you never know! I love reading magazines like People and Entertainment. I also really enjoy traveling and wish I could do more of it!

How do you think social media aids PR and vice-versa?: I think the two can only benefit from integrating with one another. Public relations creates the media hit and public awareness and then social media not only helps prolong that media hit, but also enables companies to interact with its customers — leading to stronger customer relationships. I think it makes it easier for consumers to become more familiar with a product/brand and in return the client gets a new supporter!
