IPI Marketing Team Welcomes Chris and Faith

In the month of August, IPI welcomed two new employees to the Des Moines Showroom! To assist with the website, graphic design and marketing efforts, Chris Becker and Faith Bourgeacq began their work at IPI at the beginning of the month. 

Faith graduated from Drake University in May 2023 with her degrees in Multimedia Journalism and Strategic Political Communication. She has previously gained great work experience through multiple internships for Vote Smart, CNN and the Iowa Secretary of State. She now joins IPI part-time as an Information Specialist where she will focus her efforts on the IPI website, trade show exhibits and designing marketing materials. 

In her free time, Faith enjoys bike riding and working on commissioned portraits for her own graphic design business. 

Chris graduated from Iowa State University with his degree in marketing this past July.

Chris has gained years of experience creating and marketing digital content as a YouTube content creator since 2020. He has joined the IPI marketing team as an intern where he will work on developing marketing efforts, updating content on the website and managing IPI’s social media channels. 

In his free time, Chris enjoys watching movies, reading, discovering new music and taking his dog Scout for long walks. 

Recently Chris and Faith visited several IPI shops around the state to learn more about the different operations and take photos for marketing purposes. These shops include Mitchellville, Newton, Fort Madison and Mount Pleasant. On these visits, they were able to get a closer look and better understanding of how each different shop operates, as well as the opportunities that incarcerated individuals receive by working for IPI.
