Caroline Gazzara-McKenzie is the marketing and digital media manager for Alabama Heritage. She earned her bachelor’s degree in sports journalism in 2016 and master’s in international journalism in 2019 from The University of Alabama.
Caroline worked for several publications, including UA’s Alumni magazine; several newspapers, including The Tuscaloosa News; and was a communications specialist for The University of Alabama’s Strategic Communications division.
As a self-proclaimed “military brat,” Caroline states that she has moved more times than she can count, but each experience has left an impression. She fell in love with the state of Alabama after seeing the community come together after the April 2011 tornado during her college visit in May 2011.
Living in Tuscaloosa for more than 10 years, Caroline is deeply invested in learning more about the history of Alabama. When not exploring Alabama, you can find her spoiling her cats or spending time with her family.
