From @nmacdst - Who is in the June 2017 #NMACSororSpotlight? Robyn Roberts A South Bronx native, Robyn Roberts has called Harlem home for the past 25 years. Robyn's passion for journalism has translated into a career in the publishing industry that exceeds 25 years. She initially got her feet wet at some of the big-name publishers before planting her roots at PARSInternational Corp. where she has been employed for the past 19 years and is currently the Vice President of Sales & Customer Service. Robyn leads a team of 11 sales professionals who are responsible for managing multi-million dollar copyright licensing revenue streams for more than 300 publications, including familiar titles such as The New York Times, The Washington Post, MONEY, Forbes, FORTUNE, Time and Consumer Reports as well as a host of trade publications and many regional and community newspapers across the country. Robyn is passionate about her job because she is passionate about people and her professional responsibilities allow her to touch people both internally and externally on a daily basis. Robyn's passion for people coupled with her love for God, caused her to dedicate herself to Christian ministry. Robyn accepted the call to ministry in 2010 when she was licensed to preach the Gospel. In October 2016, Robyn was elevated to the office of Elder and her administrative leadership compelled her Pastor to appoint her as President of the Board of Presbyters and Ministers, the ministry group that closely supports the Pastor through consistent congregational care, prayer and outreach. Robyn's passion for ministry keeps her schedule very busy with preaching, teaching and workshop engagements throughout the tri-state area. Robyn has served as the Chaplain of NMAC since 2015 and is also a part of the Membership Committee. Robyn earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Syracuse University's S.I.
