Kim Becker’s Summary

I’m an experienced writer with more than two decades of business management experience. I served as assistant editor for an international hospitality trade publication as well as a contributing editor to a few others.

I’m currently serving as vice president of communication for IABC’s Las Vegas chapter, and have served on the organization’s board for about 10 years in various capacities, including chapter president.

I try to dedicate a significant amount of my time to the community and the communication profession. Recent have included: senior delegate on the IABC District Six board of directors for IABC/Las Vegas; member of IABC/Las Vegas’ Senior Communicator Council; executive committee member of the I Have a Dream Foundation, Inc. Las Vegas; and trustee for the Arts Council of Henderson. I’m also a past chair of the Southern Nevada Literacy Coalition.
