Annie Laurie Malarkey
Communications professional and events leader with a decade of experience connecting brands with their audiences
I have a passion for amplifying new voices in art, design, and technology and working with smart companies who want to share their message in creative, community-driven ways.
I'm currently working as the Senior Public Relations Manager at WeTransfer, where I'm creating new partnerships, events, and leading all product PR initiatives. I've worked for ustwo, IFP, Wix, and Google, championing creatives and entrepreneurs along the way.
Lately, you can find me creating news moments, producing a new brand event series, or writing about an unlikely partnership.
In short, I spearhead initiatives, share stories and create experiences to build brand awareness and community.
