What is it that lights Alex up
To be one of the best in PR and adding additional skills that will then help the companies and individuals he’s working with. What motivates him is the desire to grow and learn, that if you don’t stay up to date, you will get left behind.
Thirst for knowledge - to help in many different areas and PR is a strong suit
Loves to give back to any organizations with kids
A new question I tried to formulate. Focusing on what good we did do, not what didn’t happen
Appreciating the moments and opportunities
Suggestions to recent college graduates:
Working in some field exposed to a bunch of businesses
