LAURA MAAS

I am an assistant account executive and the social media coordinator at InkHouse Media + Marketing based in Waltham, Mass. InkHouse is a boutique communications agency serving technology, consumer, healthcare and financial services organizations.

My social media-focused InkHouse blog posts have been featured on Ragan's PR Daily, Profnet Connect and BostInnovation.

Formerly a reporter for GateHouse Media New England, I covered every aspect of Watertown, Mass. for The Watertown TAB.

I got my start in communications as a part-time reporter for The Daily Item of Lynn. As a Boston-based freelancer, I have contributed to print publications such as The Beacon-Villager, The Tri-Town Transcript, The Haverhill Gazette and Maine's Portland Magazine. I have also had the pleasure of writing health, beauty and fashion features for Dirty Water News.

I have experience with social networking tools, social media strategy, eBook publishing and promotion, and an understanding of AP Style, as well as search engine optimization.
