Abbey Hughes

Current Role

I am a content specialist for Dumpsters.com with 2+ years of experience in social media, website development, event organization, email marketing and blog writing. I currently write SEO-optimized blogs and web pages. With a diverse set of concentrations and a relatively young perspective, my interests lie at the intersection of modern technology and historical preservation. Specifically, my favorite topics to write about include DIY and interior design ideas inspired by social media platforms, restoration projects, and sustainability.

Past Experience

A recent Allegheny College graduate with a major in Communications and minors in Music and History, I have mainly worked in the field of social media. Overall I have 6+ years of experience but spent the last two years working as a Marketing and Communications Specialist for a Cleveland-area nonprofit. My work challenged me to highlight local destinations to draw visitors and bring attention to local development.

Outside of Work

When I am not hard at work, I enjoy taking care of plants, playing rugby, running, teaching bassoon lessons, volunteering and exploring local Cleveland restaurants and destinations. If I’m not doing that, I am probably spending way too much time on Twitter and TikTok.
