✨ BIG NEWS ✨
I am incredibly excited and honored to officially step into the role of President of North Coast Young Professionals (NCYP), effective last month 🎉
I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to help lead such an outstanding organization alongside Jarvis Cole-Caston and the incredible team at Greater Sandusky Partnership 🤝
So… what exactly is NCYP? 👀
NCYP — short for North Coast Young Professionals — is a program designed for young professionals ages 18–40 throughout North Central Ohio. Our mission is to create opportunities for professional networking, engagement, education, and community connection through workshops, seminars, outings, and events.
And “young professional” means ALL professionals 👏
Healthcare. Trades. Marketing. Manufacturing. Finance. Education. HVAC. Entrepreneurship. Blue collar. White collar. If you have a specialization, certification, degree, or professional expertise in your field — this organization is for YOU.
One of the most exciting developments for NCYP came in 2025 when NCYP officially became a program of Greater Sandusky Partnership. While NCYP had proudly operated as its own standalone nonprofit for over a decade, our mission has remained the same — but now with even greater reach and opportunity.
By becoming part of GSP, we now have access to thousands of individual members and hundreds of business members across the region, allowing us to:
✨ Connect young professionals with potential employers
✨ Expand networking opportunities
✨ Help professionals build valuable personal and professional relationships
✨ Strengthen retention and engagement of young talent throughout our region
And trust me… we are JUST getting started 😎
📍 Our next event is NEXT Thursday, June 4th at 1826 Photographic!

I’m genuinely so proud to be part of this organization and incredibly excited for what’s ahead. We have BIG plans for the remainder of 2026, and I can’t wait to continue building connections, opportunities, and community for young professionals across our region ❤️
