This week, we\u2019re featuring Emerson alum Georgette Pierre. Georgette is a graduate from Emerson&#8217;s Integrated Marketing Communication graduate program, now called <a href=\"https:\/\/emerson.edu\/majors-programs\/graduate-programs\/strategic-marketing-communication\"><strong>Strategic Marketing Communication<\/strong><\/a>. Read on to hear about Georgette\u2019s successes, struggles, and dreams in her professional journey.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Integrated Marketing Communication?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Georgette graduated from Norfolk State University in 2006 with a BA in Entrepreneurship. \u201cI wanted to be a businesswoman, but I felt like I needed more,\u201d Georgette explains.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As she was researching graduate programs, Georgette recalls Emerson\u2019s Integrated Marketing Communication program seemed to be the perfect combination of her interests. \u201cWhen I stumbled across Emerson, I didn&#8217;t know what integrated communication was,\u201d she says, \u201cbut the program stood out to me because it combined mass communication with business, which I hadn\u2019t seen before. Emerson just seemed like a really comprehensive program.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While she applied to other graduate programs, Georgette decided on Emerson because of the atmosphere. She explains, \u201cWhen I visited it had a really quaint feeling. It felt like home right away and was so welcoming. It was the energy and spirit of Emerson that really drew me in.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What was your graduate experience like?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although Georgette was disappointed not to be accepted to Emerson after her first application, she didn\u2019t let that disappointment get in the way of pursuing her dreams. She worked for a year before applying to Emerson again. The second time around, she got accepted and was excited to make the move to Boston.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of Georgette\u2019s favorite parts of studying at Emerson was the community of students in her cohort. \u201cI felt really connected, and that helped me stay inspired to do the work.\u201d During her time at Emerson, she also had the space to explore her passion for radio broadcasting through Emerson\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/wers.org\/\"><strong>WERS radio studio<\/strong><\/a>. \u201cI practically lived at E-R-S,\u201d she recalls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How did you get to where you are today?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After graduating from Emerson, Georgette had another obstacle to overcome. \u201cI was ensconced with radio so I had a rude awakening when I left Emerson and couldn&#8217;t find work. I was also very egoic about it, wanting to land a commercial radio job in New York after leaving college radio in Boston.\u201d Instead of letting this derail her professional development, Georgette pivoted and began working in TV production.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Georgette fell in love with TV production because of her passion for storytelling. For a number of years, Georgette worked her way up in the industry, working as a Writer for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mtv.com\/\"><strong>MTV<\/strong><\/a>, Production Assistant and Production Coordinator at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vh1.com\/\"><strong>VH1<\/strong><\/a>, and eventually a Production Manager at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nick.com\/\"><strong>Nickelodeon<\/strong><\/a>, where she won an Emmy for her work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After such success in the corporate TV industry, Georgette decided to transition into freelance work, producing her own projects. \u201cI wanted to tell Black stories, especially about my nuanced experience as a Black woman,\u201d she explains. Some of Georgette\u2019s projects include her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgettepierre.com\/black-nuanced-podcast\"><strong>Black + Nuanced<\/strong><\/a><strong> <\/strong>podcast, her first interview series, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgettepierre.com\/dear-georgette-season-one\"><strong>#DearGeorgette<\/strong><\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgettepierre.com\/after-dark-with-georgette-pierre\"><strong>After Dark with Georgette Pierre<\/strong><\/a>, her most recent interview series.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>In 2020, while she was working for a publishing company as a Development Producer, Georgette realized that she wanted to re-enter the TV industry focusing on content creation. \u201cThat experience made me realize that I need to get back into TV but also keep some flexibility in my schedule to work on the projects I\u2019m passionate about,\u201d she adds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, Georgette is back at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paramount.com\/\"><strong>Paramount<\/strong><\/a> working as a Production Coordinator for their branded content arm, Paramount Brand Studio. A similar position to what she was doing 10 years ago, Georgette&#8217;s current role is a transitional position. While at Paramount, she plans to build some more connections in the industry and bring in the income she needs to continue creating her own art.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/06\/Accessibility-header-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/06\/Accessibility-header-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/06\/Accessibility-header-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/06\/Accessibility-header-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/06\/Accessibility-header.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do you still feel connected to Emerson?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI really do feel connected to Emerson still. That doesn\u2019t go away.\u201d As an Emerson alum, Georgette has access to Emerson&#8217;s vast professional network. She mentions the extensive network of Emersonians in the film and television industry, as well as the opportunities available through <a href=\"https:\/\/emerge.emerson.edu\/\"><strong>Emerge<\/strong><\/a>, Emerson\u2019s professional networking platform. She adds that being from Emerson makes it a bit easier to get into professional spaces. \u201cIf one person can\u2019t help, they\u2019ll point you to someone else who might have a connection to get you in somewhere.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This connection to the school is not one-sided, either. In January 2022, Emerson\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/emerson.edu\/alumni\/publications-media\/making-it-big-30-minutes\"><strong>Making it Big in 30 Minutes<\/strong><\/a> podcast asked Georgette to be a host for the show. As the former host, Georgette interviewed a new Emerson alum each episode, hearing about their success stories and challenges along the way. She remembers when she received the request to be a host, she felt seen and valued within the Emerson community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do you have any advice for prospective students?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t be in a rush, and fully immerse yourself in what your program has to offer.\u201d Georgette says she wishes she had been more involved with graduate student organizations while at Emerson. While she built a fulfilling community of peers in graduate school, Georgette wishes she had known about clubs like <a href=\"https:\/\/emconnect.emerson.edu\/organization\/eboni\"><strong>EBONI<\/strong><\/a>, Emerson\u2019s organization dedicated to supporting students of African descent. She advises potential students, \u201cFind ways to plug in with as many communities as possible because you don\u2019t know where those connections will lead you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a solid foundation in the Emerson community and many great professional experiences under her belt, Georgette is excited to see where the future takes her.
