Michael Freedman, associate director of public relations and manager of online content, has been chosen as a “Spotlight Professional” by Buffalo Niagara 360, a program for young professionals that’s coordinated by the Buffalo Niagara Partnership.

Freedman was recognized during the Buffalo Niagara 360 Kickoff Celebration, which was held Thursday, Sept. 26, at Shea’s Performing Arts Center.

“This is a well-deserved honor for Mike and his family,” said Tom Burns, Niagara’s associate vice president for PR, communications and marketing. “As a public relations professional, Mike is usually the person responsible for promoting the many great successes of others at NU. He has been an incredible asset to the university, and he has earned his place in the spotlight.”

Individuals selected for the award must be engaged in the community (with impact/results), demonstrate leadership skills, and their work must be aligned with the Partnership’s pro-Buffalo Niagara mission of furthering regional development and growth.
