President, Chelsea Pozar, was recently invited to speak as the keynote speaker at The Society for Marketing Professional Services (SMPS)’s Marketing Bootcamp. Her presentation focused on career growth through resilience and vision, highlighting how overcoming professional challenges and shaping one’s future with intention can pave the way to leadership.
Chelsea shared her personal journey of navigating the AEC industry, offering insight into how she strategically approached opportunities and setbacks alike—ultimately guiding her toward her current role as president of the firm. Her message emphasized the importance of staying grounded in your goals, embracing challenges and leading with clarity and purpose.
In support of her presentation and to further their own professional development, Studio W team members Brian Whitmore, Megan Garon and Sofia Rehn also attended the Bootcamp.
