About Benjamin Chan

I am a graduate of Suffolk University, majored in Global and Cultural Communications and minored in Marketing. In addition, I also have an interest in political science and government, particularly in local and state government herein Massachusetts. I plan on attending graduate school in the near future, focusing on media communications and local government. My leadership style is always getting out and listening to people with respect to their ideas, thoughts and concerns. I want to see what is going on in real-time to get a firsthand account of the conditions and issues happening in order both to understand and generate possible solution(s). What is important to me is that we get communications right, ensuring positive teamwork, making sure we are all accountable, and being as transparent as possible in order to achieve positive and meaningful results. I hope to connect with you in terms of networking and getting to know you better!
