Welcome to the New Year
CVPRO Risk Communications Presentation and Lunch Set for Feb. 29
By Lindsey Lundquist, President
Central Valley Public Relations Organization
It is with great pleasure that I welcome the New Year as
your new CVPRO President. As the New Year begins, it is a great time to look to
the future and reflect on what one would like to see happen in the coming year.
I have spent some time reflecting on our mission. CVPRO is to provide career
enhancement and advocacy for public relations, communications and marketing
professionals in the Central Valley. I am committed this year to furthering this
mission and to bringing the most relevant and up-to-date information to the
members and to offer valuable networking opportunities.
So you can get to know me a little more, I currently work
at Emanuel Medical Center as the Corporate Communication and Marketing
Coordinator. I graduated from California State University, Stanislaus in 2008
with a bachelor’s degree in Communication Studies. Upon graduating, I accepted a
position as the Social Media Specialist at the Stanislaus County Fair. With
passion and hard work, I developed and launched a social media program for the
fair. I was then recruited to Emanuel Medical Center to develop and launch its
social media program, as well as market the organization’s key service lines. I
hope that through the year, I will get to know all of you a little more too.
I would also like to introduce my leadership team
members: Mark Looker, webmaster; Adrenna Alkhas, treasurer; Michelle Reimers,
membership; Christine Ramsey, publicity; Melissa Williams, programming; Herb
Smart, social media. Without these impressive leaders, CVPRO would not be as
great as it is. I would also like to thank Melissa Williams
and Courtney Considine for doing such an amazing job as the previous Co-Chairs
and their dedication to this organization.
