SPRINGFIELD — Market Mentors LLC, a fully integrated marketing, advertising, and public-relations agency, recently welcomed Christina Hager to its team as a public relations account executive. The two-time New England Emmy Award-winning television journalist recently wrapped a 25-year career with WBZ-TV (CBS Boston).

In her new role at Market Mentors, she works with the marketing team to plan and execute communications strategies with a focus on media relations. This includes writing and distributing news releases, pitching story ideas, responding to media queries, preparing statements, and developing content across various media platforms.

“Christina has been a great addition to our team,” said Michelle Abdow, president and CEO of Market Mentors. “Her passion for storytelling and expertise in navigating the media landscape serves her well as she works with our clients and media partners to find unique angles that bring our clients’ stories to life and channel their expertise for a variety of audiences.”

“As a television news reporter and investigative journalist, I have spent decades covering major events across the country, including notable legal cases, the Boston Marathon bombings, the September 11th terrorist attacks, extreme weather events from Texas to Florida to Massachusetts, mass shootings, and major-league sports championships,” Hager said. “Now that I’ve jumped the desk, so to speak, I’m enjoying working with my media colleagues in a new way, serving as a resource they can count on.”
