While there she oversaw the launch and day-to-day campaigns of some of the most successful FOX series in the studio’s history, including “The X-Files,” “Cops,” “Living Single,” “Picket Fences,” and “The Simpsons.” She was also nominated for a Publicists’ Guild of America Award for her campaign for “Chicago Hope.”
