Background

About Patrick Shankhour

As the Director of Communications & Social Media at Pioneer Charter School of Science (PCSS), I have been leading the online presence and outreach of a network of charter schools that offers STEM education to diverse students in Massachusetts for over seven years. My mission is to enhance the visibility and reputation of PCSS, and to showcase the achievements and stories of our students, staff, and alumni. My core competencies include social media management, creative writing, public relations, event planning, and broadcasting. I have created and curated content for various platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, and YouTube, reaching thousands of followers and generating positive feedback and engagement. I have also secured and coordinated official visits from state leaders and media outlets, building strong relationships and creating opportunities for collaboration and recognition. Additionally, I have leveraged my broadcasting skills and experience to produce and host a campus-wide sports talk-show during my college years, where I developed my on-air personality, technical proficiency, and guest coordination. I am always eager to learn new skills and explore new opportunities to support the growth and success of PCSS.
