Welcome! I’m Deanna and the voice behind the blog.

I am a Pittsburgh blogger and creator of PRetty in Pittsburgh, a business and lifestyle blog and e-newsletter that features insights on the PR and marketing industry, as well as health and fitness, Pittsburgh, things I’m loving, and more. 

I’ve been in PR/communications and marketing for more than 15 years and have a unique perspective working on both sides of influencer marketing as I manage influencer campaigns for my job, and often collaborate with brands personally!

I’ve been married since 2013 and a mom since 2021. I live with my husband, daughter, and pup. I like fitness (I’ve posted a lot about running on this blog!), everything food (cooking and eating it — I never met a carb I didn’t like), traveling, polka dots, afternoon beers, and drinking anything with fizz. I am also obsessed with planners.

Thanks for visiting!
