We had a conversation about how effective is the use of social media and PR for nonprofits. Anne gave us insights into her community engagement efforts, Blake wasn't sure what PR professionals do, and Ernesto pondered how difficult it is to create and manage a nonprofit. One thing we all did agree on is that a nonoprofit is a business and nothing about that is easy.  Anne O'Dell is currently a Candidate for a Masters in Fine Arts in Arts Management at the University of Oregon where her work focusing on cultural planning and arts administration is informed by her experience as a vocal artist living in the US. This past summer, she interned with an Arlington County organization and was able to see up close and personal how continued professional development impacts effective leadership skills and community engagement and despite the sarcasm in this podcast, yes, she is a feminist.
