Brigitte @ YN[H]: Public Relations, Writing, Editing, Social Media Consulting
Telling the Tale
Brigitte serves as one-third of the talented trifecta known as Your Name [HERE] Media. Though Brigitte has never possessed the desire to be a musician (and no, high school choir competitions do not, in fact, count), her passion for music has never waned. One day she decided to turn that passion into a side-career of sorts and began her foray into the topsy-turvy world of music journalism. It was through her misadventures in freelance writing that Brigitte discovered a genuine need for the YN[H] Media concept and the desire to turn that idea into something tangible.
Simply writing about musicians and the music they make wasn’t enough, Brigitte decided. Houston is teeming with artists from across the creative spectrum and the world needs to know that. Brigitte believes that YN[H] serves to put Houston’s creative culture on the map through community, collaboration and inspired communication.
