Howdy! I’m April Kling (there’s an L in there!), the consultant for Education and Insurance Industries. You might be wondering how I could possibly switch gears between such drastically different industries, but the answer is simple—both industries are focused on enhancing the quality of life for as many individuals as humanly possible, and, well, so am I!

Like most of my awesome teammates here at Media Partners, I come from a diverse work background, with many overlapping experiences. My resume reads like a convoluted liberal arts college course listing—retail management, non-profit, textiles, public relations, advertising, marketing, title insurance, and radio! It is a relief to have finally landed here, having been trained by previous employers with "Give 'Em the Pickle" and "The Guest," it is an honor to look back and realize I now play a vital role in spreading Media Partners' belief in a better world for people who work... and people who depend on those people who work (everyone!)
