Why PR?

Peter MacKellar: Account Executive, BlissPR-B2B Public Relations and B2B Marketing Services

Growing up, one of my favorite things to do was write, and when I got to college, I looked for a way to involve writing in my daily life. After a short semester as a print journalism major, I discovered PR at the urging of a friend and have been hooked ever since.

Areas of Expertise and Interest

Prior to joining Bliss, I was lucky enough to experience a wide variety of communications disciplines working for various clients in consumer, financial, technology and entertainment fields. I have always had an interest in the financial world and I am looking forward to learning more about it though my time here at Bliss.

What I Did Before BlissPR

Before coming to Bliss, I had a brief stop in Greenville, S.C., at a full-service agency. I graduated from Arizona State University in Tempe, Ariz., and spent time after graduation working in the communications department of Wells Fargo’s technology division.

What I Do for Fun

Being so new to New York, most of my free time is spent exploring the city either by choice or by losing my way. With summer just around the corner, I’m looking forward to experiencing all the city has to offer from sports to food to the museums.
