Hi there! I’m Darae Lyles, a 24-year-old Stevenson University graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Business Communication. My passion lies in marketing and communications, and I am strongly interested in expanding my design skills.

My journey began as a communications intern at International Social Services—USA, where I supported efforts to reunite cross-border families. At Stevenson, I gained hands-on experience in social media marketing through coursework, student organizations, and leadership roles. I served as the Social Media Manager for The Stevenson Villager and co-led The Communication Hub, a student-run initiative connecting peers to careers in communication.

I currently work as a Marketing Specialist at Gilbane Building Company, where I contribute to external corporate communications and collaborate with operations teams nationwide. In this role, I create marketing materials, develop content for RFPs and proposals, and ensure all communications reflect brand standards. My work requires precision, creativity and strong editing skills, qualities I bring to every project with enthusiasm.

I’m proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, Canva/Canva Pro, Microsoft Office, G-Suite, and more. I’m a team player with a drive to grow professionally and make meaningful contributions in the marketing and communications field.

I welcome you to explore the resume tab to learn more about my experience.
