NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, December 11, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Bree DeVita, President of Maverick Public Relations (MPR), has been named Young Professional of the Year at Ragan’s 2025 PR Daily Awards, recognized as the top honoree among five national finalists. The award was presented on December 2 at City Winery in New York City.

DeVita, who was appointed President of Maverick Public Relations at the beginning of 2025 after establishing the agency’s New York City office in 2023, has quickly distinguished herself as a transformative leader whose work is driving meaningful change across clean energy, law, wellness, and other highly regulated sectors. In her role as President, she oversees agency-wide strategic direction, leads integrated communications programs for a portfolio of clients valued at more than $1 billion, manages Maverick’s media relations, digital and creator divisions, and ensures operational excellence across all client accounts. She guides long-term growth initiatives, shapes messaging architecture for high-stakes clients, mentors staff across all levels, and upholds the agency’s standard for responsive, measurable communications that elevate visibility and strengthen reputational resilience.

“Receiving this award is an incredible honor, and I am grateful to the Maverick PR team and our clients who trust us with their most important stories,” DeVita said. “This recognition reflects the power of strategic, data-informed communications to move industries forward. I am inspired every day by the work we do and the communities we serve, and I am committed to continuing to push for excellence, innovation, and impact.”

Throughout 2025, DeVita led campaigns that delivered outsized and measurable results. Her impact reaches across sectors. At ACORE events, she orchestrated real-time digital storytelling that drove triple-digit growth in social media impressions, while building a media program that consistently attracted top national journalists and influencers. She introduced Botani’s Tea Leaf Wrappers to international trade audiences and strengthened digital engagement across priority channels. For Sun Theory, she supported multi-state expansion with messaging that underscored regulatory credibility, investor confidence, and community alignment.

“Bree has been with Maverick PR from its earliest chapter, and her impact is unmistakable. From those first days at the agency to her leadership now as President, she has shaped how we think, how we operate, and how we show up for our clients. She is a core part of our success, and this recognition reflects the strength she brings to our team every day,” said Shawna Seldon McGregor, Founder & CEO, Maverick PR.

She plays a central role in shaping Maverick PR’s culture, investing in the development of junior staff and strengthening the agency’s integration of modern digital tools, social strategy, and thought leadership frameworks.
