Virginia Howat

MARKETING STRATEGIST

I love the challenge of truthful and creative communication. Whether listening to a podcast, crafting a blog, or simply writing an email, I’m compelled by the connection and emotion that comes with stringing words together. With almost a decade of experience in the marketing industry, I bring a passion for helping community-minded organizations thrive through clear branding and communications.

After graduating from Clemson University, I moved to Memphis, Tennessee for a post-grad program. Through the program, I interned at a digital marketing agency, where I started my career. Two years later, I moved to Greenville, SC and fell in love with the city and community. During my six years in the Upstate, I’ve worked in content strategy for a real estate firm and, most recently, as the Communications Director of a local nonprofit, where I piloted a communications department to help the organization’s mission reach a wider audience.

When I’m not at my laptop, you can find me teaching yoga at the YMCA, taking my dog for long walks, cooking new recipes, and reading alongside my book club. My husband and I are involved in our local church and love spending time with friends and family.
