Thank You, Chicago BMA Board

Thank You, Chicago BMA Board

Social Media PR ManagerLast week I was awarded the Chicago Business Marketing Association Board Member of the Year award.

I’m really proud of this for many reasons, and I just wanted to thank Chicago BMA’s outgoing president, Linda Meenan, the CMO of law firm Wildman Harrold (pictured with me below) and the entire board for this honor and great recognition.

As background for all who don’t know BMA and my involvement, I co-chair the membership and social media committees and have been on the BMA board since 2007. I’ve been an active member since 2003, but my experience with the national organization goes way back to 1996. Needless to say, I think it is a great organization and it’s done a lot for me professionally and personally. So join today!

Prior to that, George spent a few years in corporate PR and marketing roles with Baxter Healthcare Corporation and Arthur Andersen. Prior to that, George started his career at a PR firm and B2B marketing agency in Cincinnati. In between, he received a masters in Integrated Marketing Communications from Northwestern University’s Medill School. His undergrad degree in journalism and PR is from Ohio University.
