Dr. Caroline Gommel denkt, plant und schreibt als PR-Vollprofi aus Leidenschaft. Sie ist Spezialistin und Allrounderin zugleich. Sie interessiert sich für fast alles und vereint dabei so unterschiedliche Themen wie High-Tech und klassische Moderne, Drehmoment und Violinschlüssel, Finanzmarktdaten und Dentale Volumentomographie. Studiert hat sie Literatur, Musikwissenschaft und Geschichte. Promoviert hat sie über eine Oper von Paul Hindemith und zeitgleich ihren Weg in die Öffentlichkeitsarbeit eingeschlagen. Über unterschiedliche Stationen in den PR-Abteilungen bekannter Verlage wechselte sie in die Unternehmenskommunikation eines Medien- und Nachrichtenkonzerns. Dort konnte sie nicht nur ihr PR-Handwerk verfeinern, sondern auch ihren Horizont auf das Medienbusiness und die Finanzbranche wesentlich erweitern. Außerdem lernte sie während der Arbeit für die Nachrichtenagentur beide Seiten der Kommunikation kennen: ihren eigenen Schreibtisch und den News-Desk ihrer Journalistenkollegen. Von der Welt der Daten und Zahlen wechselte sie in die Medizintechnik und übernahm für einen Dentalkonzern mehrere Jahre lang das PR- und Medienmanagement. Gegründet hat sie die Agentur dokolea aus Spaß am Wort, aus Neugier auf die Menschen, die Unternehmen und ihre spannenden Geschichten.
Über sich sagt sie: „Eigentlich wollte ich Sängerin werden, aber dann habe ich festgestellt, dass ich noch besser schreiben als singen kann. Heute denke ich, ich habe den schönsten Beruf der Welt, besonders dann, wenn mir das Texten so leicht von der Hand geht, dass ich dabei singen kann.“
