As Communications Lead, you own that. You run our email communication end to end: announcements to ambassadors, updates to fellows, weekly and monthly newsletters, and alerts whenever a new blog post goes live. You make sure the right people get the right message at the right time, in a voice that sounds like BMLSIA.
