About Zara Pyle

Hello, I'm Zara. I'm a dedicated and creative professional with a strong background in social media management and marketing. Working as the Social Media Manager at Leaders of the 21st Century for the past three years, I have worked hard designing compelling content that showcases the great work of the non-profit using tools such as Canva, iMovie, Photoshop, and Premiere Pro, posted across various platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn. During my time as a Marketing Intern at the New York State Teachers’ Retirement System (NYSTRS) in Albany, NY, I demonstrated my design skills by revamping print materials for career fairs, HR department resources, and community events. Through this and various other internship opportunities, I have demonstrated my organizational, interpersonal, layout and design skills, as well as my positive creative mindset. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre and Media & Society, graduating Magna Cum Laude from Hobart and William Smith Colleges in Geneva, NY in May 2023. I am currently pursuing a Masters of Arts in Advertising at Syracuse University's S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications. Throughout my educational career, I have been recognized on the Dean’s List and honored as an Edward E. Griffith Arts Scholar for Theatre, along with being a member of the Lambda Pi Eta National Communications Honor Society. In addition to academics, I acted as a Writing Colleague, selected to assist peers in every stage of the writing process, President of Perfect Third, a co-ed acapella group, and an actor in various productions with HWS Theatre. My diverse educational and extracurricular background, as well as my skills in various platforms such as Adobe Creative Cloud, Google Drive, Microsoft Office, as well as Social Media such as Facebook, Instagram, and X, bring an organized, creative approach to any task at hand.
