Thanksgiving at Kite Hill PR: A Time for Reflection and Gratitude

The feeling of warmth and connectedness is ever present at Kite Hill PR, and especially during this time of year. We are so grateful to be a part of a team that values agility, balance, candor, collaboration, and passion. In a world that is constantly evolving around us, it's easy to fall into routine. Thanksgiving invites us to take a step back and appreciate what the year has brought. 

Before the team begins preparing their turkey dinners and gathering around friends and family, we asked them to take time and reflect on what they are most grateful for. Read what they had to say:

“I am grateful for sunshine and family time! Thanksgiving is one of my favorite times of year because the weather is perfect and since the date always lands on a Thursday, we get extra time to catch up with friends and family.” - Rachel Hadley, COO

“I am grateful for my family and friends and their continued love and compassion. I am thankful for my health and the opportunity I get everyday to be a better person. I feel blessed to have a job with people I enjoy and an environment that encourages and supports personal and professional growth.” - Charlyne McWilliams, SVP

“I am feeling thankful for so much in my life as we begin to bring the 2023 chapter to a close. This year, my close family, friends, and colleagues surrounded me with so much love and support. I married my best friend, I celebrated an amazing and fun 10-year anniversary with my colleagues in New Orleans, and I immersed myself in family, friend and neighborhood gatherings. I feel so fortunate to have such a wonderful support system — inside and outside the walls of Kite Hill PR!” - Mackenzie Sikora, Senior Account Director

“I’m thankful for my health and the new opportunities and experiences I have had over the past year. l wouldn’t be where I’m at without all of the supportive family, friends and coworkers I have in my life. I’m grateful to work at a company that promotes passion and balance both within work and outside of work.” - Kyle Murray, Senior Account Supervisor  

“I’m feeling extra grateful for all the incredible people in my life – family, friends and colleagues alike. It was another busy (read: rewarding) year filled with personal and professional growth, lots of travel, and plenty of good times.” - Maggie Stasko, Senior Account Manager

“Thanksgiving has a way of amplifying our moments of reflection ten fold. I’m so thankful for my health, the health and safety of my family and my two-year old pup, Cruz. I’m also thankful for the incredible life lessons 2023 has thrown my way, whether I was ready for them or not. There is always a ‘why’ to every unknown plan. Last by not least, I’m enormously grateful for my Kite Hill PR work family and clients. Thank you all for making my one-year anniversary the best memory yet!” - Geanna Diaz, Account Manager 

“This year, I’m very thankful for the support of my family, friends and colleagues. I’m also grateful for the opportunity to grow - both personally and professionally - and am looking forward to welcoming 2024 with loved ones and my precious pup, Sonny!” - Alexandra Morrison, Account Manager

“I am extremely grateful for the supportive people I have in my life! From family, friends to my colleagues, I have the privilege to be surrounded by people who help me to be the best version of myself.” - Lauryn Russell, Account Associate
