Courtney Karpiej

She began her journey after high school at Endicott College, where she majored in communications with a concentration in marketing and a minor in business administration. She knew marketing or advertising was in her future, but she was never set on social media during her studies.

That all changed when she began her extensive internship journey, working for a PR agency, a small fitness and lifestyle magazine, a sports training facility and a local newspaper – all with limited knowledge of social media.

That’s when she knew it was an area she wanted to hone her craft, and it paid off. After graduation, she became a social media coordinator at a jewelry store, a project manager at a staffing agency and now she’s a social star at Brafton.
