Why I joined the Chamber
““The Tallahassee Chamber was one of the first organizations that genuinely supported me in launching CPS23 Marketing, now known as The Current Agency. Since then, the Chamber has continued to be an incredible partner—connecting me to opportunities, relationships, and platforms to grow. From becoming a sponsor to serving as a speaker, the Chamber has been a key part of my journey as a business owner in this community.” ”
