Julia Demopoulos

Since I learned how to hold a pen, I wanted to become a writer. When the teachers in school used to ask us, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” my answer was always, “An author!” Six-year-old me thought that was the only writing job that existed, but as I grew up, I realized it wasn’t that I wanted to write books; I wanted to tell stories. 

Today, I’m doing exactly that. From nonprofit to healthcare to energy and more, my time at Castle has allowed me to tell stories in different ways for clients across varied industry sectors. 

In addition to working on the public relations side, I wear a second hat at Castle as one of our social media experts, merging my two industry passions in one role. Whether drafting a press release or working on a social media content calendar, I enjoy helping our clients convey their brand message, build relationships with their key audiences, and drive more engagement.  

Aside from my day-to-day social media and media relations work, I am a dedicated member of Castle’s Corporate Social Responsibility committee. From our Career Pathways Initiative to our holiday donation drive, I am passionate about giving back and uplifting our community and learning how to do that from a corporate viewpoint. I also have the privilege of helping to manage our PR internship program, allowing me to step into a mentorship role as I guide and support the communications professionals of tomorrow.  

Before joining Castle, I spent almost two years at a Boston communications agency and prior to that, spent some time as a freelance copywriter and social media manager. I am a proud alumna of Suffolk University in Boston, where I received my BA in Journalism with a concentration in print/web.  

When I’m not in the office, you can find me trying new restaurants in Boston, reading a good book (and posting on my booksta!) or taking a hip hop dance class. Who knows, maybe one day I’ll make six-year-old me proud and start writing that book!
