Astonish Results Employee Profile: Sara Mulkeen

Share

Meet Astonish Results’ newest team member, Sara Mulkeen! Astonish is very excited to bring Sara aboard as the latest addition to the ever-growing SEO Department.

Her official duties and responsibilities will consist of blogging, writing press releases, and assisting with link building. Although she has only been here for a few days, she is adjusting to her new role as SEO Content Specialist with ease.

Originally from Wrentham, MA, Sara attended and graduated Framingham State University, majoring in English with her concentration being in Journalism.

Right out of college, Sara worked full-time as a health content writer for an internet marketing agency in downtown Boston where she wrote about everything from endoscopic spine surgery to drug rehabilitation services. Although Sara enjoyed her time with the company, she wanted to branch out to other forms of writing.

“I wanted to find a company that put more emphasis on writing quality content that is valuable to both the people who read it and the clients who are striving for higher SEO rankings,” Sara said. “So, after I met with Meredith (McBride), Kelly (Ahern), and Shawna (Arnold), I was happy to hear that this is exactly what Astonish does!”

Since her first day on the job, Sara has been enthusiastically learning the ins and outs of the insurance industry while acclimating herself to her new role at Astonish.

“I am so excited to be here. It seems like Astonish has an awesome crew of talented writers,” Sara said. “I look forward to learning a lot while helping the SEO team take on more blogging and social media initiatives!

 

Q&A with Sara:

Favorite Foods/Beverages? Chinese food. And my beverage of choice is Chai tea

Favorite Music Artist? Right now it’s Florence and the Machine

Favorite Movies? This is hard. Probably a tie between Mean Girls and Good Will Hunting

Favorite TV Shows? Law and Order SVU

Favorite Celebrities? In all seriousness, Snooki

Favorite Sports Teams? Red Sox

Favorite Vacationing Spot? My family has a house on Cape Cod so I spend as much time there as possible. I love the national seashore!
