Elevating Penn State Lehigh Valley’s campus voice
Since joining the campus, Abramson has expanded Penn State Lehigh Valley’s storytelling presence across digital platforms, University news channels and community media outlets. He collaborates closely with faculty, staff and students to produce stories highlighting academic excellence, undergraduate research, community partnerships, campus events, internships and career-readiness initiatives.
“Ryan has brought a renewed focus on our strategic storytelling,” said Mary Kate Maguire, the campus’ communications specialist. “He has been key in authoring campus news, supporting short- and long-form video, and elevating our keyword research and SEO.”
His writing has appeared throughout Penn State News, covering topics ranging from faculty scholarship to global entrepreneurship, student achievement, gallery exhibitions and campus workshops.
“Penn State Lehigh Valley is a place where students discover their strengths, build confidence and prepare for meaningful careers,” Abramson said. “I’m honored to help share those stories.”
Connecting Bucks County, Philadelphia and the Lehigh Valley
A lifelong Bucks County resident, Abramson said his Pennsylvania roots shape his approach to communication and community engagement. Penn State Lehigh Valley serves students from Bucks, Lehigh, Northampton and surrounding counties — including many first-generation students, students working full-time jobs and students caring for family members.
“Pennsylvania is filled with stories of resilience, innovation and community,” Abramson said. “Penn State is part of that story. Penn State leads this story. Our students are writing the next chapter of that story. Every day is a reminder of the power of the Penn State mission.”
