• “There isn’t one defining moment or accomplishment in my career that I am most proud of; I think it is the journey. The different seasons of growth that led me to where I am today. Leaving my corporate job after 15 years, to bet on myself, was probably one of the most pivotal moments. One that was very risky, and took tremendous courage and faith. I had left the comfort of what I had always known, to become an entrepreneur of a startup communications agency. Sound crazy? It was, but it is one of my biggest accomplishments to date…and one that is continually challenging me to evolve and grow every day.” - Hayley Scheck Antonian , President and Co-Founder
• “The first Oscar-winning campaign I worked on is definitely one of my proudest career accomplishments. Being able to be part of a successful awards campaign very early on in my career from inception – signing the client, visiting set during filming, watching the film in various stages and then ultimately seeing the finished project – was very inspiring. Working alongside my team on a nearly yearlong awards campaign, which resulted in wins at the Golden Globes, BAFTAS, DGAs and Oscars was a great learning experience and something I’ve taken with me throughout my career since.” - Mila Geffner , Account Manager
• "The career accomplishment that I’m most proud of is getting myself into the fashion PR industry in NYC after graduation from college. I was working in marketing in Boston when I secured an unpaid internship at a luxury fashion magazine. I quit my full-time job, during the recession, found a roommate on Craigslist, and moved to NYC within a two-week period. I spent the next three months taking notes of all the fashion PR agencies that I would visit when I was sent to pick up clothing samples by hand for photoshoots. After my internship ended, I started cold emailing those companies asking if there were any employment opportunities and eventually, I was able to secure a full-time PR assistant role a few months later. I think it took a lot of guts, resilience (there were a lot of no’s) and the self-determination that you have in your 20’s to make it happen.” - Lindsay Girolamo , Senior Account Director
• "Undoubtedly, landing my Summer 2023 internship with Scenario. Each day was met with new learning experiences and genuine conversations; I always felt like an asset! Even reprising my intern role this spring before college graduation, the team finds new ways for me to be involved and improve. I hope they know how much their ambition and savviness have amplified this as an accomplishment for me! At this point in my career, I am proud that I took the steps that led me to the industry most suited for me and Scenario.” - Julia Moran , PR Intern
• "The greatest accomplishment in my career so far that I am most proud of would have to be switching jobs. It is a great thing when you can connect with a company and work well together, but never be afraid to use your own network of connections, both personal and professional, to help guide you to a new chapter. You never know what a quick email or coffee could lead to!” - Lauren Howe , Account Manager
• “After almost a decade working in digital marketing, my proudest achievement has been building out our digital department here at Scenario -- it was a leap of faith on their part to bring me on, and it’s been so rewarding to watch our client base grow and to develop a team with such talent and expertise to support that. I feel so invested in this company and I have poured so much of my heart and soul into this process over the last year, so watching it come to fruition has been so rewarding. It only makes it that much more rewarding to be working alongside such a great team and under inspiring, intelligent leadership.” - Lisa V. , Account Director
