Robinson joined NBB in 2009, bringing to the industry more than a decade of professional communications experience. She has worked for trade associations, government agencies and politics and also in radio and television news. She is a graduate of the University of Missouri's School of Journalism and hold a Masters in Strategic Leadership from Stevens College.
