Darryl E. Owens, Beacon director of communication, has been nominated for the Joe Curley Rising Leader Award by the Lake County Chapter of the Florida Public Relations Association.
The award, named for the co-founder of Orlando, Florida public relations firm Curley & Pynn, is meant to identify and honor up-and-coming individual FPRA members who demonstrate emerging leadership traits along with dedicated active involvement in FPRA chapter activities, programs, functions, and events.
Owens, a founding member of FPRA Lake, serves on its leadership board and has earned numerous local, state, and national public relations industry awards. The statewide winner will be revealed at the FPRA annual conference in August.
