Pitch Live with Amy Summers

Cultivate confidence through action: #PitchStar Daniela Restrepo

This episode of “Pitch Live with Amy Summers” podcast takes a look back at Daniela Restrepo’s #internship #mentorship at Pitch Publicity® and how it helped shape her path from student to standout marketing professional. While completing her degree in Public Relations at the University of Florida, Daniela was selected as a MAIP 2022 Fellow, collaborating with a team to research and develop a social media campaign for the prestigious Disney Dreamers Academy. Daniela then quickly made her mark in Chicago’s marketing scene—first at MSL, where she led influencer campaigns for Pampers, managing everything from vetting and negotiations to content performance, and later at FCB Chicago, where she oversaw gift and greeting card campaigns for USPS and supported large-scale creative initiatives. Today, Daniela is an account manager at Havas Chicago, a leading integrated marketing communications agency that blends an independent spirit with global scale to make a meaningful difference for brands, businesses, and people. With her courageous spirit and unwavering determination, Daniela shares how mentorship and hands-on experience can open doors to a purpose-driven career. Key pitching/mentorship takeaways from Daniela Restrepo on this episode of “Pitch Live”: Be consistent and persistent in pursuing opportunities. Strong writing skills will set you apart—sharpen them early. Don’t buy into the myth that agency life means no weekends—find balance. Company culture matters—always ask about it, including DEI efforts. Ask thoughtful questions at the end of every interview—it shows initiative. Mentorship isn’t about titles—lead and support others at every level. Build confidence through experience to silence imposter syndrome. Remember: rejection is just redirection.
