Member “In the spotlight” series

Image of a dark silhouette representing a person against a teal gradient background. The IABC/Toronto logo and the words “In the spotlight” appear in the top left corner. White text at the bottom reads: “Your Name Here” and “Including title and photo.”At IABC/Toronto, we know and appreciate that our members are what make our chapter a vibrant, dynamic, and inspiring community. From seasoned communication leaders to emerging professionals, agency storytellers to in-house strategists, members follow many different paths into and through the communications profession. In the spotlight series is our way of shining a light on those journeys — the pivots, passions, lessons learned and moments that have shaped how our members show up for their work, their communities, and the profession.

Want to be featured or know someone who should be?
We invite members to nominate themselves or a fellow IABC/Toronto members to be In the spotlight.

To put forward a name, please email toronto-membership@iabc.to and outline how the nominee is an active participant in the communications community, along with anything notable about their experience that may be of interest to our members.
