About
Co-founded by communications veterans Maxine McDonald of Media Profile, Renee Weekes Duncan of Rogers Communications and Bunmi Adeoye of Proof Strategies, the public relations professionals saw a need for a nurturing, safe and respectful space for learning, growing and knowledge exchange. It was also a chance to give back and provide support to those who are often “the only ones” within their chosen sector of the communications field.
