Background

About Conna Dewart

As Development and PR Manager for Upward Transitions, Inc, I am honored to promote this amazing 100-year-old nonprofit community that works hard to end homelessness and generational poverty in Oklahoma City. I find real satisfaction in fundraising, marketing, public relations, and communications for this incredible organization. My background is diversified in public relations, fundraising, event planning, journalism, graphic and web design, social media management, and public speaking. I got the PR bug as an employee with McKinsey & Company’s high profile Los Angeles marketing management team. My approach is effective, dynamic, research-based, and data-driven. I have had a heart for people suffering in the trap of homelessness my entire adult life. I feel truly fortunate to have the opportunity to lead Upward Transitions in fundraising for this cause. In my limited free time, I'm a journalist and a freelance writer for online and print media with expertise in Personal Growth, Humor, Travel, Dining, Entertainment, Science, and Parenting. I'm a career coach, and a content creator. I create web and graphics design projects for Entertainment, Travel, Media, and Luxury Industries. Sometimes I sing.
