Communications Coordinator

Mya recently joined Keep Pinellas Beautiful as the Communications Coordinator in September. As the Communications Coordinator, she will oversee our public connections, social media pages, newsletter, and website. She is very excited to be a part of such a passionate and inspiring team.

Being from Long Island, Mya developed a passion for the outdoors and beaches early in her life and has always had an appreciation for nature. She worked at her hometown beach for a few years before moving to Tampa to pursue her bachelor’s degree. Prior to KPB, Mya attended the University of Tampa and studied Advertising & Public Relations. During her time in school, Mya gained experience in relationship building, creativity, teamwork, and writing and wanted to find a way to bring these aspects into her future career. After graduating in 2024, Mya continued to work as the Marketing Assistant for Foodie Card, a New York-based company, and joined their sister company, The Forking Group Agency, as a Social Media and Account Manager. Mya’s goal as Communications Coordinator is to use social media and other platforms to spread the word about KPB’s mission and goals of beautifying and conserving our local community.

In her spare time, you’ll find Mya at the beach, going on a walk outdoors with her friends, calling her family back in New York, or reading a good book!
