Laura Kern’s Expertise Hard worker. Eager learner. Confident writer, communicator, and critical thinker. Experience in journalism, social media, communications and education. Graduated with a 4.0 GPA and a BA from the English Literature program at Washington University in St. Louis. Writing has been my passion since elementary school, but my technique has come a long way since then. During my internship with Sauce Magazine, I got the chance to hone my journalistic writing style by writing articles about new restaurants and trends in the St. Louis food scene. I also improved my people skills by conducting interviews and contacting interviewees to fact-check my colleagues' work. I utilized these skills as a Social Media/PR Intern for the St. Clair County Animal Services Department-- during my time there, I drastically increased community engagement with the department's Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages. Now, as a Communications Specialist with the Illinois Senate, I am able to use both my print and social media skills to enhance the relationships between senators and their constituents. As an English major at Washington University, I worked on numerous projects that developed my skills as a professional writer and researcher, including coursework in argumentation and oral communication and intensive research projects. My most rewarding work, however, has always been with Gifts from the Heart, a children's charity based in my hometown of Belleville, Illinois. GFTH began in 1996 and has grown exponentially since then-- it now provides over a thousand children in the Metro East with Christmas gifts every year. As a young volunteer, I helped guide shoppers toward the most popular and most demographically appropriate toys for the targeted age groups; today, I help out at the annual fundraising banquet by selling raffle tickets, providing food and drink to caterers and setting up and breaking down the event venue. (I still go toy shopping too-- what can I say? I'm a kid at heart!)
