Sarah Knight, BA 2000 (PR)

Education

  • B.A. (PR) 2000

Biography

Sarah was a staff writer for The Chronicle during her senior year at Purdue University Calumet and performed volunteer public relations functions for the Northwest Indiana Habitat for Humanity. After graduating college, Sarah began her public relations career working at The Field Museum in Chicago, where she served as a public relations assistant for two years.

Moving to Indianapolis, Indiana in 2002, she now works for Klipsch Audio Technologies, a leading global manufacturer of premium audio products, as a public relations specialist and writer. Touting Klipsch as her dream job, Sarah uses the skills she acquired from Purdue University Calumet to produce web site content, execute the company’s global communications plan and contribute to brand development. She has even had the chance to meet and interview various celebrities.

Sarah will always cherish her experiences at Purdue University Calumet because it’s where she received a great education and met some of her very best friends, including Jennifer Popagain, Dani Gomez, Barbara Leslie, Amy Taylor, Jasmina Terzioska and Joseph Bogs. Because 90 percent of her job at Klipsch involves writing, she would like to send a special “Thank You!” to Professor Neil Nemeth for challenging her and helping her develop her writing skills.
