I used that skill from day one at Ogilvy. Also, PRSSA taught me that it is okay to absolutely love what you do and to always stay on message because you&#8217;re constantly adding people to your network. Adopting a \u201cwork hard, play hard\u201d attitude and life balance continues to this day and is encouraged in my workplace in order to be a well-rounded employee.<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What advice would you pass along to current PRSSA members?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;\">Life is short, so live your dream and share your passion. When you&#8217;re truly passionate about something, it will show through. Get involved early in PRSSA and give it your all. PRSSA is a fantastic way to make connections, build a portfolio and find lifelong friends who will be your future colleagues all around the country in the near future and 20 years from now.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>This is a guest post written by the Vice President of Professional Development, <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.prssa.org\/about\/Leadership\/National_Committee\/ProfessionalDevelopment\/\"><em>Jessica Noonan<\/em><\/a><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Editors Note: To honor our graduating PRSSA members, this \u201cOne Year Later\u201d series will follow where our past members are one year after their graduation.
