Caroline Gillard has known she wanted to be in public relations since high school. Growing up in Chicago, she kicked off her career at Edelman as an intern during her junior year of college. After graduating magna cum laude from Loyola Chicago, Caroline ventured over to finance where she worked for a clearinghouse for three years and some change. After an especially brutal polar vortex winter, Caroline made the move to Memphis for warmer-ish weather and some southern hospitality. She’s now a proud homeowner and pet mom to two cats and three ducks.

Caroline Parkes has spent the last 10 years getting her clients in the spotlight, which is fitting for someone with a background in pageants, figure skating and musical theater. From serving food to wearing costumes to even eating bugs, she has continuously developed creative ways to keep her clients top of mind among consumers. While she has had a successful PR career, including landing international publications, her greatest accomplishment is her family – her husband and two children.
