Michelle Lott
PR Specialist
A 2020 graduate of Auburn University, Michelle majored in Public Relations with a minor in Marketing. She started her professional career at a digital marketing firm where she worked on paid ads, SEO, web design and more. Following her move from Alabama to Indianapolis in May 2021, Michelle worked for a public relations agency before joining the team at Dittoe PR. She has a great deal of experience with B2B tech clients and has touched many industries, including financial, legal, healthcare, HR, geospatial, education, etc. Getting national coverage is never an easy feat, but it’s something Michelle has been proud to accomplish several times.
When she’s not working, you can find her playing with her black lab, Deacon, and watching any Auburn sporting event. She is scuba-certified – the best place she’s been diving is Grand Cayman, but she and her husband have a trip to Fiji planned that she’s hoping will top it.
