Episode 51: Two PRs Talking PR
We’re making history by welcoming our very first Missourican guest to the show! Daniela Velázquez joins us today. She is the Senior Manager of Public Relations at Elasticity, a St Louis-based digital marketing and advertising firm, and sits on the leadership board for VozKC, a Missouri-based PAC focused on building the power of Latinos across the state. We discuss what life was like for her growing up Puerto Rican in Missouri, public relations and her work with the PAC, VozKC.
