Brianna Kelly: What is your name?
Emily Richmond: Emily Richmond
BK: And what do you do here at PEG, Emily?
ER: I am an Account Manager.
BK: What does that mean?
ER: As an account manager, I lead communication and coordination with our clients, as well as our internal creative team to make sure that all deliverables are executed and sent to the client on time.
BK: What do you add to the team here?
ER: So, I think that I add a positive attitude. And I really like that I have a lot of different experiences, and come from a lot of different industries that bring a different perspective to the whole team.
BK: What do you like best about your job?
ER: Everything! I didn't realize that as an account manager that I would be doing something different every single day. And I think that's what I love most about my job is that every day is different and we never know exactly what kind of projects we are going to get, so that's always the exciting part.
BK: What makes PEG different?
ER: Honestly, I don't think I've ever been a part of a team where everyone is passionate about what they do and everyone also loves food, which is one of my passions. I really think it transforms the quality of our work and I think that's why our clients continue to come back.
BK: Alright, Emily. We are going to get to learn a little bit more about you.
ER: Oh, boy.
BK: What is something quirky about you or a fun fact?
ER: I love home decor. Although, my bank account does not. And I'm also left-handed. I'm the only left-handed person in my family.
BK: Where did you grow up?
ER: Well, I was born in Kokomo, Indiana, and at age three moved to Kent, Ohio, where my mother is from, and lived there my whole life. And then ended up at Kent State University, so I guess you could say I'm a Kent-ite.
BK: Finish this sentence for me. "Please get me a cup of..."
ER: Chick-fil-a sauce thank you.
BK: The most important question we're gonna ask all day. Puppies or kitties?
ER: Puppies. 110 percent.
