The NSPRA 35 Under 35 program recognizes young professional members who make a difference for their school districts or education-related employers. Members are nominated every other year for consideration. McGowan Gorsuch and the 34 other winners will be recognized at [NSPRA’s 2023 National Seminar](https://www.nspra.org/National-Seminar) in St. Louis, Mo., this summer. “During my time in SchoolPR, I have been blessed to know, learn from, and collaborate with a family of communicators who tirelessly serve their schools, families, and K-12 as a whole,” said McGowan Gorsuch. “I am honored to be included among the ranks of these exceptional professionals who truly have a heart for what they do, and for the K-12 community their expertise serves.” Before joining the Rhodes Branding team, McGowan Gorsuch served as Public Information Officer for Henderson County Public Schools (HCPS), a 23-school district in Western North Carolina.

At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, McGowan Gorsuch led her district’s Communications Task Group organized in response to state guidelines for reopening public schools, and was a thought leader in the NC Department of Public Instruction (NCDPI) District Communication Leaders Group. In her current role at Rhodes Branding, McGowan Gorsuch is the liaison between the K-12 community and Rhodes’ creative and marketing teams, connecting schools and districts with services designed to align with their unique priorities.
