Concord chamber exec moves to NHLRA

Celia Phillips, longtime communications director of the Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce, has left the organization to take a new position at the New Hampshire Lodging and Restaurant Association.

The 29-year-old Manchester resident will be the education and programming coordinator at NHLRA, a newly created position.

Phillips was instrumental in developing the Concord Young Professionals Network, a peer-to-peer networking group that meets monthly for social and informative events. She is also a member of Leadership Concord.

Phillips was to begin her new position at NHLRA on Sept. 4. — CINDY KIBBE
