Nicole Kirby, APR
for NSPRA President
Why I’m Running
I would like to be the next NSPRA president-elect because I owe a lot to this organization, and it is time for me to give back.
This is a critical time of transition for NSPRA, particularly because we are looking for someone to follow in the footsteps of our retiring executive director. At the same time, our members are navigating times of change and uncertainty.
I am well suited to take on the leadership of the board during this moment, with a focus on equity and a priority on strengthening our support network.
