Bio
Gretchen Rachel Hammond
I consider myself extremely fortunate to have had Robert as a colleague at the Reeling Film Festival. He came to us as an intern when our challenges in marketing and public relations were considerable. There was no dedicated staff person and, since operations for the Festival were just getting underway, there had been only a scant amount of marketing work completed before he came on board. Robert immediately grasped and took control of the task at hand. A completely collaborative individual, he was the lead in the creation of social media and advertising plans that were as imaginative as they were effective. Robert would often work outside of his internship hours, researching, perfecting and implementing his plans. He was always available to his fellow interns if they required help and his energy and enthusiasm were pervasive. There is no doubt that his natural instincts in the fields of Marketing and Public Relations combined with his working knowledge of the latest social media platforms and the joy he takes in his work mean that Robert is poised for success on the highest level. I am proud to recommend Robert to any company considering him as an employee.
