Hi! I'm Bailey, a small-town American adventurer, Writer, Photographer, and PR Consultant based in California’s Central Valley.
In 2018, I founded Bloom Creative Marketing as a way to help small businesses struggling to keep up with the demand for quality and consistent social media content. As I took on more passion projects and got my hands dirty using my powers for good in my community, I realized that “marketing” was just a small piece of the puzzle I was helping put together for organizations in my area. This epiphany shifted my focus toward the real mission-driven work I had been doing as a volunteer for local nonprofits since 2015. Over the last several years, I’ve been proud take on the legwork behind a handful of my favorite local organizations and be a part of the future taking shape in my hometown of Lodi, California. Today, Bloom Creative Public Relations focuses on human-centered PR and C-Suite Consulting for local nonprofits with a healthy dose of strategy, perspective, & fun!
I grew up in the restaurant business and have done everything from washing dishes and waiting tables to managing coffee shops, teaching tech classes, producing live shows, building spreadsheets, and mucking horse stalls. In my twenties I was lucky enough to move all over the country, pouring my heart into as many projects as I could get my hands on. In 2015 I ran off to New Orleans for a few months to rest my weary heart and decided it was time to come home and make a life for myself. What I found was so much more (and so much better) than I bargained for!
Within a year or so I was hitched to an old friend, managing a successful local Real Estate office, and scheming for a second dog. In 2018, I escaped the clutches of my soul-sucking 9-5 to embark on a creative adventure of my own design, and I’ve never looked back!
I feel honored every day to pour my time, energy, and heart into the people, places, and stories of my livable, lovable hometown.
