Liz Cooper

Since 2015, Liz Cooper has worked in the MassBay Marketing and Communication Office, helping raise the public profile of MassBay through storytelling, social media, and earned media placements. Her resume includes working for more than 13 years in the Boston television news market in multiple roles, a public relations firm, and as the Director of Communications for the Massachusetts Secretary of Education under former Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick. Liz loves talking to reporters about all things community college because she feels good press for one community college is good press for all of us. Always taking her job to heart, in April 2023, Liz trained and successfully completed the Boston Marathon raising more than $11,000 in support of student scholarships at MassBay Community College. Liz was named the National Council for Marketing and Public Relations District 1 Communicator of the Year in 2024. When you can’t find Liz pitching a reporter, you can find her rooting on all of the Boston sports teams with her Emmy-award-winning news photographer husband Ted or trying to keep up with her three kids – Teddy (12), Camden (9) or Madison (7) – on a sports field.
