PRESIDENT DRAKE MCLEAN
Hey! My name is Drake Mclean and I’m currently serving as the president of the Public Relations Student Society of America. I’m a senior here at Colorado State University studying Journalism and Media Communication with a minor in Geology. Over the past few years, I’ve held a variety of leadership positions that helped me navigate complex group dynamics, organize long-term projects, and communicate with students and professionals alike. I’m by no means an expert in these fields, but with the help of our leadership team, I’m confident that we will be able to set a new standard for what it means to be in CSU PRSSA and create a foundation from which our chapter can grow.
