| About Kia and REAL Quixtar Blog |
OK, here’s the FULL disclosure. Kia is my nickname with a few people, but I'm more commonly known as Robin Luymes, Manager--PR & Editorial at Quixtar Inc.
I've been with the Alticor family of companies since 1991, when I joined Amway's PR Department. I was in charge of media relations for Quixtar when it launched in 1999, and now manage all PR and Editorial activities for the company. In other words, I work with the Quixtar staff that write the content that appears on Quixtar's web sites, in Quixtar's print communications, and in public relations campaigns. The PR & Editorial teams represent some of the most knowledgable and talented people I've ever met, and I'm very proud to be affiliated with them.
I'm also very proud to be affiliated with this company. Quixtar Inc. is a great place to work. It is filled with hard-working people who are committed to their jobs, their families and their community. It is a place where creativity and ideas abound. It is a place with a commitment to excellence in all we do to support the businesses of our IBOs. Sure, we’re not perfect. Not everything goes as planned. But Quixtar employees try their very best to make the Quixtar business the best it can be.
More about me? I'm married and have four kids, ranging in age from 16 to 4. I'm active in the community. Currently I'm on the board of Grand Rapids Christian High School and serve as a deacon at my church. I recently served on the board of Second Harvest Gleaners of West Michigan. I'm a past president of the West Michigan chapter of the Public Relations Society of America. I've also been actively involved with Toys for Tots of West Michigan and with Degage, a ministry providing a safe harbor to the poor and dispossessed of Grand Rapids' Heartside neighborhood. I play soccer and coach my kids' teams, which I always name Grand Rapids United, because I try to teach the kids about teamwork and working together as a unit.
This blog represents my views, but as head of public relations for Quixtar you can expect that it is my desire to place this company in the best light possible. If you have comments or questions or information you need share, send me an email. So, what's on your mind?
