About me

Hello!

My name is Jillian Byers, and I’m from Barrington, Illinois.
In December of 2025, I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Auburn University with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication and an International Minor in Human Sciences.

With experience spanning across athletics, corporate communications, and broadcast journalism, I thrive in fast-paced environments.

At Auburn Athletics, I’ve supported live sporting events by delivering accurate stats, transcribing press conferences, and creating engaging digital content. My time with Inspire Brands strengthened my skills in enterprise communications and brand engagement, while interning in broadcast news gave me firsthand experience of reporting, interviewing, and producing stories for broad audiences.

Beyond professional experiences, I’ve held two sorority executive board positions, serving as recruitment director and PR manager, driving social media campaigns that reached over 800,000 views in just one month. I’m equally energized by building communities, mentoring others, and fostering growth.

With strong skills in strategic communication, I am excited to continue pursuing opportunities that allow me to elevate stories, strengthen brands, and create meaningful connections. As a recent December 2025 graduate, I am searching for a job or internship beginning in January 2026!
