Since the Taste of PiHi on 11/10 we've been transitioning our content and social media manager position. Julia Jones, who worked with PiHi Alliance since May, moved to Los Angeles right after the event. Thank you Julia for elevating our online presence and especially starting the member spotlights! We wish her the best in her new endeavor. 

We are happy to announce our new social content and member outreach manager, Maria (pronounced Mariah) Lauriault. Be on the lookout for Maria's posts starting in January 2025. You can reach out to her at social@pihialliance.com. 

Maria is native to Coffee County, Georgia.  She spent her collegiate years in Columbus, Georgia where she received a Bachelor's Degree in Communications, focusing on Public Relations and Mass Media. After college, Maria spent 4 years exploring the west while living in Denver, Colorado.  During her time there, she managed restaurants, worked in casinos, and got her start in professional photography by working for Shutterfly. Maria moved to Atlanta in 2022 and splits her time between professional photography and bartending on the Eastside Trail of the BeltLine. Maria is a pet mom to Goose(dog) and Penny(cat) who have visited over 15 states with her during her adventures. With her passion for community and excitement for media, Maria is ecstatic to join the PiHi Alliance team and get to know the wonderful community of Piedmont Heights. While her website is still under construction, you can see Maria's photography displayed on her Instagram, @mars.shootsfilm
