Ashley Fierman and Kelsey Dean have been named co-chairs of New PRos, the new professionals section for the Greater Fort Lauderdale Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA).

PRSA is the world’s largest organization of PR professionals, providing professional development and setting the standards of excellence in the industry.

The New PRos sections of PRSA chapters provide resources and networking opportunities to help public relations professionals build critical knowledge, learn new skills and advance their careers. In this position, Ashley and Kelsey are tasked with planning and executing events and coordinating with the chapter’s executive board.

“It’s not enough to just be successful at your job. It’s equally important to put yourself out there when you’re not in the office — seek networking opportunities, build relationships and get involved in organizations,” said Kelsey Dean. “We’re very excited to start growing the New PRos section with other like-minded PR professionals.”

To celebrate PRSA’s New Professional’s Week, which takes place August 23-29, the two planned the chapter’s first-ever event geared toward new and young professionals on place September 2 at the Tilted Kilt in downtown Fort Lauderdale.
