Balsera Communications President Appointed to State Department Role
David Duckenfield, president and partner at Miami’s Balsera Communications, has accepted a new role as deputy assistant secretary for Public Affairs at the U.S. Department of State.

Duckenfield has been a partner at Balsera since 2007; before joining the firm, he directed Yahoo’s Latin American and U.S.
