Time and talent is what helps our chapter deliver value for our AMA members and the Cincinnati marketing community. A unique benefit of being an AMA member is getting to volunteer, and with that, comes opportunities for recognition!
Please join us in recognizing and give a hearty “Congratulations!” to our July Volunteer of the Month and July Board Member(s!) of the month.

Reason for recognition (aka “AMA super power”): A brilliant communicator and project manager, Bianca approaches her volunteer role with a killer combination of grace and determination.

Plus, like a true communicator, she promotes and shares the value of AMA consistently on her engaging Twitter account (seriously, @ her!).
