This week MG is saving a seat for her guest, Kylie Lee Flett, Director of PR + Strategy at PUNCH Media. This former bartender is a huge animal lover, the co-founder of RestingGiftFace.com, and is Philly’s FAVORITE (and hilarious) Aussie!  Kylie is also a board member for Morris Animal Refuge and sits on the committee for their Annual Fur Ball Event.

In this episode, MG and Kylie have a good laugh over the phenomenal and creative packages that Resting Gift Face curates. They switch gears to highlight how the pandemic has affected animal shelters who rely on events, fundraisers and donations from the hospitality industry, a community that has also been trying to stay afloat over the past year and a half. Kylie opens up about the Australian WildFires in early 2020 and the fundraiser she organized here in Philly to help her native home.  With a hopeful outlook on the future, hear what they both have to share on the resilience and grit of the Philadelphia hospitality community and their excitement for the return of live music and shows.

Kylie Lee Flett rejoined the PUNCH Media team 5 years ago -- which is where she first launched her career and cultivated her love for PR. She is highly respected amongst Philadelphia’s press and business communities, particularly from a food and beverage perspective. Flett is a tenacious and seasoned pro — who like James, shares a must-win attitude for PUNCH Media’s clients. She has extensive experience in developing brand strategies for regional and national clients such as Coopers' Craft Bourbon, Sojourn Philly restaurants, The Bourse Food Hall, Tamworth Distilling, and Art in the Age. Flett holds a masters degree in Professional and Business Communications from La Salle University and hails from Adelaide, South Australia.
