SILVER SPRING, Md. — Joshua Lynsen has accepted a position with Chase Communications, a public relations and marketing communications firm, as Account Executive & Social Media Manager.

Lynsen, who is currently completing his freelance communications and event planning obligations, will start at Chase Communications on Monday, Feb. 7. He is already attending client meetings and contributing to strategy discussions in the days leading up to his official start with the firm.

"I am very excited to be joining such a respected and effective firm," Lynsen said. "I know that my experiences in traditional and new media will help Chase Communications surpass the ambitious goals they have set out to achieve. I look forward to playing a key role in this smart team."

Chase Communications was founded in 1997 in San Francisco. It is a full-service communications firm with staff in San Francisco, Washington, D.C., and elsewhere. The agency's expertise includes real estate, health care and consumer areas.

"As the nation continues to rebound from the recession, the real estate marketplace is again becoming a vibrant place," Lynsen said. "And a dynamic health care discussion is beginning again in Washington. There will be no shortage of messages to share, audiences to engage and events to plan. Just as I was during my time in newspapers, I'll be right in the middle of it all."

Lynsen, who graduated from the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minn., with a degree in journalism, previously worked at local, regional and national publications. He left the industry in August 2010 to pursue a career in public relations and performed various contract and consulting work in the field before accepting a position with Chase Communications.

Lynsen lives in Silver Spring with his wife, autographed copy of "G.I. Joe Comics Magazine #1" and 57 video games.
