Prior to launching Krietzberg Creative Public Relations, Tricia spent eight years as a freelancer writer, which
enabled her to stay involved in her career while also raising her three beautiful children.  During that time,
Tricia also was named the editor of the
BellaOnline Charity Site, a position she still holds today.  

Before becoming an independent consultant, Tricia served as the Director of
The Prudential Spirit of
Community Awards (winner of an IABC Gold Quill Award), a national community relations program focusing
on youth volunteerism.  Tricia was responsible for strategic planning, writing and producing collateral
materials, developing and implementing media strategies, planning and implementing an annual four-day
national event, and acting as the program spokesperson.  She also oversaw the production of videos, public
service announcements, and a $2 million advertising campaign.  

Prior to her success with Prudential, Tricia was the Assistant Director of Corporate Communications for Jersey
Shore Medical Center.  There, she spent six years managing the public relations activities for a variety of
departments, particularly the Cancer Center, Emergency Department, and Substance Abuse Counseling
Services.  She created and implemented both internal and external special events and wrote numerous
feature articles, brochures, annual reports, handbooks, press materials, educational literature and video
scripts.  

Tricia’s career began at Ketchum Public Relations in New York where she sharpened her skills for clients such
as Schering Plough, National Geographic Television and Budget Rent-A-Car.  She wrote press kits for various
campaigns, developed strong relationships with reporters at national general interest and trade publications,
and managed both the booking and the in-person coordination of several cross-country media tours.

Tricia received her accreditation in public relations (APR) from The Public Relations Society of America in
1995, and served as the President of the Jersey Shore Public Relations and Advertising Association in 1997.  
She graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts degree in public relations from Glassboro State
College.  

In an effort to use her skills for the benefit of others, Tricia volunteers her time in numerous ways.  Along with
her children, she created a program called “Birthday Buddies,” which provides a complete birthday celebration
for homeless children.  She has also provided pro-bono marketing assistance for a local homeless shelter,
volunteers as a Girl Scout leader, and is an active PTA volunteer.
