About Me

Hello and welcome! 👋 My name is Gabrielle (Gabby) Piccirilli. I’m a creative second-year graduate student at Villanova University with a passion for communication, writing, graphic design, and the art of storytelling.

🎓 In May 2025, I graduated summa cum laude from Villanova with my B.A. in Public Relations & Advertising, along with minors in Creative Writing and Writing & Rhetoric.

🩷 I’m a detail-oriented, goal-driven communicator with a strong foundation in creative and strategic writing. I’m especially passionate about storytelling that resonates, whether through PR campaigns or original fiction.

💻 I’ve gained experience through internships in nonprofit and agency environments, where I created content, developed campaigns, and supported both internal and external communications.

✅ Currently, I am working as a Media/Public Relations Apprentice at Grithaus Agency and as a Literary Agent Intern at Langton’s International Agency.

📝 My career goals include working in public relations/publicity while pursuing my long-term dream of becoming a published novelist.

I possess an unwavering passion for writing and a desire to make my mark in the publishing industry. I intend to explore opportunities within book publishing while maintaining my existing valuable network.

I created this website as a space to share my growing portfolio of academic, professional, and personal writing and design work. Thank you for checking it out!
