How does membership in PRSA assisted you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

PRSA Alaska has created many connections for me. Building a network that isn’t hollow can be hard \u2014 this chapter creates relationships that matter. But I think the most important part of pursuing a career in PR is having a desire to learn, adapt and grow. It’s all about information and education. Being a member of a community that is constantly sharing new ways to evolve is such a luxury, especially when it’s catered to the Alaska market.<\/p>\n

“Each one teach one” is a phrase I always come back to. Joining PRSA Alaska opens up a lot of opportunities to benefit from professionals who are doing just that.<\/p>\n

Thoughts on PRSA Alaska Volunteering<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’ve been managing the PRSA Alaska website since 2016 and might do it for the rest of my life. But in all seriousness, it’s a position I enjoy and will do for as long as I am wanted and needed. I encourage everyone to explore ways in which they can volunteer, too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
