Jackson Spalding Athens adds Ivy Le
Brings Number of Full-Time Employees to Six
Athens, GA. - The Jackson Spalding Athens office added Ivy Le as a new account professional in August. She joins the firm after two years working for the corporate reputation management and multicultural practice groups of a global public relations agency. Her client assignments will range from consumer to business-to-business accounts.
Ms. Le graduated with honors from The University of Georgia in 2005 with dual degrees in political science and journalism. She was a Foundation Fellow, which afforded her considerable academic experience around the world. Her studies included stints at Angelika University in Cambridge, England; Central European University in Budapest, Hungary; and the University of Buenos Aires and Torcuata di Tella University in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Besides her native language of English, she is fluent in Spanish and Vietnamese and speaks conversational German.
"Ivy brings a unique perspective and skill set to Jackson Spalding, and we're thrilled that she's joined us," said Brian Brodrick, who heads Jackson Spalding's Athens office. "Her great track record with national media contacts and her international perspective are a major plus for our office as we seek to build our client roster among Georgia's blue chip companies and institutions."
She is a Texas native and first-generation American whose parents emigrated to the U.S. from Vietnam. Their experience as new citizens fueled her interest in political science and her student internships with Hungary's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and UGA's Center for International Trade and Security.
