ABOUT ANDREA HUBBERT - IN HER OWN WORDS

I am a disruptor... since an early age. So said my middle school teachers who sent me home with daily report cards because I wouldn't stop talking in class.

My methods may have changed since then, but my spirit remains the same. 🎉

Today, I'm a public relations strategist and copywriter who helps creators be intentional in the ways they connect with their audiences.

Yep... I start conversations and pass notes for a living. Take that, Mrs. Dansby!

But seriously, there's something magical about taking the conversational traits I started honing way back in middle school and skillfully using them to help my clients get clear on their unique messages, amplify their most compelling stories and position themselves for the greatest impact.

As your ride or die sidekick you can count on me to help you:

▪️ Write copy tighter than… [fill in the blank]
▪️ Cultivate a fanbase of true ride or dies
▪️ Become media darlings

Probably with cocktails.

Who do you want to connect with and what journey do you want to take them on? Let me help you. Here are some of the things I've had the privilege of partnering with others to achieve (view sample client list in Experience section below):
