LESSING-FLYNN HIRES NEW DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC RELATIONS
Source: Lessing-Flynn news release

Claire Celsi has joined Lessing-Flynn as Director of Public Relations. This newly created position was added due to the steady growth and expansion of the agency. Celsi previously owned and operated her business, The Public Relations Project, LLC, which she founded in 2009.

With category experience in agriculture, biofuels, construction, economic development, financial services, higher education, manufacturing, telecommunications and tourism, Celsi brings immediate value to current Lessing-Flynn clients. In addition, her extensive network of contacts in the community will help to create new opportunities for the firm.

"The timing is perfect to bring someone with Claire's experience in public relations and marketing to Lessing-Flynn," said Tom Flynn, President of the company. "Our clients are looking for new ways to tell their stories through both traditional and new media and Claire has been a leader in this - both locally and nationally."

The Drake University grad is an active alumna and regularly lectures to public relations students and is an active member of the Drake National School of Journalism and Mass Communications Advisory Board. Celsi was also appointed to the Iowa Alcoholic Beverages Commission in 2010 and currently serves as Vice-Chair.

The Des Moines native is passionate about social media, trying recipes out of fancy-schmancy cooking magazines, and enjoys spending time with her husband, Jim, her children and Trixie the Wonderdog.

Founded in 1907, Lessing-Flynn is one of the oldest advertising agencies in the U.S. Lessing-Flynn's current marketing communications efforts can be seen in a broad base of industries, including manufacturing, agriculture, financial, healthcare and construction. More information about Lessing- Flynn can be found on the company's website at www.lessingflynn.com, blog at www.admavericks.com, or via email at info@lessingflynn.com.
