DKJA Establishes New Communications Team
Dear DKJA Community,
As we enter a new school year, I am pleased to announce our new communications team. Along with launching our new web site and continuing to implement the re-branding of DKJA, we have established a new Office of Communications.
Communications is a vital component for the strategic growth of DKJA. Having a centralized communications office will allow us to have alignment among our various departments and units -- from lower, middle and high school to IT and admissions -- under one coordinated approach. This new effort will create a consistent messaging, elevating DKJA's public image, and also assist with streamlined internal communications, as well as external marketing efforts online and in social media.
I am excited to announce Carrie Ann Perez has joined us as our new Senior Communications Manager. Elana Rubinstein, a DKJA alumna, joins the team as our new Social Media Content Manager.
We want to thank Jane Black for an amazing 10 years as our communications director. Jane has taken a position at Duke University as Director of Communications and Marketing in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. We will miss Jane and thank her for all her hard work to elevate DKJA's public image. We wish her the best of luck and know she will thrive in this new role.
Carrie Ann Perez joined DKJA as our new Senior Communications Manager. Carrie has more than 20 years in communications, in both newsroom settings as well as higher education. She has a bachelor's degree from SUNY Buffalo and a master's degree from Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism.
Carrie most recently worked at Florida Atlantic University and the University of Miami. She has many years of experience as a newspaper editor and reporter, as well as working in the field of public relations for nonprofits locally. In her role as Senior Communications Manager, Carrie will oversee DKJA's communications and marketing efforts, along with Development Director Scott Ball. Carrie can be reached at (561) 558-2122 or perezc@dkja.net.
Elana Rubinstein joined DKJA as our new Social Media Content Manager. Elana is a proud DKJA lifer and alumna and joins us after working at Duree & Company public relations firm in Fort Lauderdale. She has a bachelor's degree in communications from the University of Miami. Elana, a DKJA alumna, joins the team as our new Social Media Content Manager and brings experience in public relations and social media marketing. In this role, Elana will work with Carrie and Scott to raise DKJA's online presence. In addition to this, Elana is excited to launch DKJA's alumni campaign this year.
