I’m looking forward to building on what Koray has achieved in regards to pushing for a more equitable, inclusive and professional PR industry. I’ve been so impressed by the work being done across the Association, especially by the PRCA Race and Ethnicity Equity Board, the Equity and Inclusion Advisory Council and our Climate Communications Group. I look forward to working closely with our members during a pivotal time for professional practice within PR.”
