The Aspire nominating committee is pleased to announce the following business leaders have been nominated for a three-year term to the board of directors beginning January 1, 2024: Deana Haworth, CEO of Hirons Advertising and Public Relations, and Kyle Stiens, Director of Operations for NSK Americas Automotive Division.
Each nominee has been engaged with Aspire for several years in advisory capacities, including service on our Economic Development Advisory Council and via public relations consulting.

“These nominees will bring global perspectives in manufacturing, public relations, and economic development to the forefront of our conversations. As we work to make Johnson County an even more fruitful place for business success, I am grateful they are offering their talent to help us achieve our vision in 2024 and beyond.”
