Milagros’ journey with PRSSA began her freshman year, driven by a desire to gain preprofessional experience and connect with like-minded individuals.

As National President, Milagros is committed to empowering students to excel in the ever-evolving field of public relations. In her role, she works alongside a talented team to lead initiatives that bridge the gap between academic learning and professional practice. Her responsibilities include strategic planning, overseeing international events and ensuring members have access to valuable resources and growth opportunities.

Beyond her PRSSA commitments, Milagros dedicates her time to making a difference in her community. She volunteers at GEO, the sustainable development center at the University of Buenos Aires (UBA) and serves as a writer at The Jane Goodall Institute Argentina. Additionally, her involvement in the Professional Council for Public Relations of Argentina further reflects her commitment to advancing the field.
