Let’s Catch Up with GVPRSSA Alumni

Let’s see what past GVPRSSA students are up to after graduation. For this GVPRSSA alumni series, I caught up with Emily Gagnon, the former GrandPR CEO and now a young public relations professional. During her time with GVPRSSA and GrandPR, she won various awards for her dedication to the organizations, such as the PRSSA National Gold Key Award from the PRSA Foundation (alongside 2019-2020 GV PRSSA President Delaney MacKenzie), the Excellence-in-a-Discipline Award from Grand Valley State University Advertising and Public Relations Program, and the Thomas M. Seykora Award for Outstanding Contribution from Grand Valley State University.
