Madison LaBerge

It's been quite awhile since I've posted on here. Here's a little update on what I've been up to:
- I have officially been working at the Arizona Biltmore, a Waldorf Astoria Resort as a PR & Marketing Specialist for 1.5 years!

- Over the last 18 months, I've helped to launch a property rebrand after a $150 million renovation and restoration. I've helped to upgrade the website, written all internal and external communications, taken social and web photos, secured placements in national and local media and designed digital and print collateral. (See below for my latest work!)

- I launched my blog, www.TheMadisonLab.com ! This is where I share what I am up to, with a specific focus on Phoenix based activities and locations.

- I helped to rebrand the Royal Anchor Resort website in Old Orchard Beach, Maine. This much needed relaunch was completed by a small (and remote!) three person team after it was purchased earlier this year. Take a look here: https://royalanchor.com/

That's it for my update – for now. Thanks for sticking around and continuing to follow my page! Stay tuned for some exciting things in the pipeline.

If you’re a fan of the light and crispy texture of tempura-fried dishes, then you’ll love this recipe. With classic Japanese-style batter and added toasted coconut, it has a sweet and savory crunch that pairs perfectly with quick-fried shrimp.

I went to Phoenix mainstay eatery, Matt's Big Breakfast. The restaurant has been featured on Guy Fieri's "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives", CNN, Bon Appétit, The New York Times and now, The Madison LaB.

Yolking it up at Matt's Big Breakfast I am a big breakfast gal. It is the only meal that is an absolute must for me.

To round out Women's History Month, I dove into leading lady of the Arizona Biltmore, Heloise Swaback Crista. While she doesn't get much of a historical nod on the property, her artwork has stood the test of time and is prominently featured across the Phoenix area.

International Women's Day: An Ode to the Tastemakers Before us, Heloise Crista One of the artists featured on property, Heloise Swaback Crista, was a visionary often forgotten in relation to the rich history resort. Who was she, why she is eternally linked to the property, and what her connection is to Frank Lloyd Wright?
