We’re delighted to announce that the recipient of the 2021 IABC/Toronto Bobbie Resnick Student of the Year (SOTY) Award is Jacob R. Robinson, CAPM!
Jacob is a fourth-semester student at Humber College’s Public Relations Advanced Diploma program and is also involved in a number of impressive initiatives. He is the editor of Humber College’s First Year Experience Student Life website, working to promote the College’s accessible events through innovative copywriting and search engine optimization. He also works as an on-campus senior mentor, providing mentees with resources, information and tips on how to succeed in their academics and other areas of their lives.
Outside of Humber College, Jacob is an IABC/Toronto volunteer who supports various chapter initiatives and currently serves as the president of the Eglinton – Yonge Toastmasters club. In February 2021, Jacob earned his Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) certification, as he would like to integrate his interest in project management with his passion for public relations.
Despite working two jobs and juggling academic and volunteer initiatives, Jacob has managed to maintain a 4.0 grade point average.
Jacob is a rising star that we should all keep our eye on!
