Staff Spotlight
Congratulations to Renee Wilde, director of public relations, on a decade of service to MHA!
Renee serves as a brand steward for Missouri Health Matters, Missouri Health Careers and Focus on Hospitals. This stewardship includes managing all of the brands’ overall strategy and messaging, websites and social media, email communications, and audience growth. She also serves as the liaison for Missouri hospital marketing and PR staff through the Missouri Association of Healthcare Public Relations and Marketing.
Renee loves collaborating with staff on how to best communicate their message and tell their story. Recently, she assisted the maternal health team with brand development for the Missouri Perinatal Quality Collaborative. “I am especially proud of the work done with the PQC team that will no doubt have a positive impact on Missouri moms and babies. These projects are always a huge team effort and being a part of that is so rewarding.
“In my 10 years at MHA, I have never been bored. MHA invests in employee growth, providing staff with new opportunities that challenge them as professionals. I am so grateful for all I have learned throughout my tenure through taking on new projects and duties. MHA is also filled with great mentors who have a wealth of knowledge and a passion for serving Missouri hospitals and communities.”
Outside of work, you’ll find Renee chasing toddlers and babies. She and her husband, Chris, are the proud parents of four small children: Mia (4), Tate (2) and newborn twins, Samuel and Max. Their family loves being outside and taking walks with their dog, Charlie.
