LANSING Mich. — The EDGE Partnerships family just got a little bigger with the recent addition of Aaron Bodus.

EDGE is an award-winning, full-service agency headquartered in downtown Lansing that produces
dynamic public relations and marketing solutions for its portfolio of clients. Bodus joins the team to further the agency’s legacy of outstanding outcomes as a lead communications strategist.

A fresh face in the field of public relations, Bodus honed his written communications skills in the
(occasionally) rough and tumble realm of local journalism, serving as an editor at daily newspapers in Michigan and California. His writing earned awards from press associations in both states.

Most recently, Bodus served as the managing editor of The Argus-Press in Owosso for nearly two years. During the 2023 Michigan Press Association awards cycle, he was recognized for outstanding column and feature writing, as well as excellence in photography and page design.
“I am really excited for the opportunity to contribute to EDGE’s mission and culture,” said Bodus.

“There’s an undeniable energy here that I think is evident in the work the agency does. They’re bottling lightning, and it will be fun to be part of the delivery system.”

A 2015 graduate of the University of Michigan, with a Bachelor of Arts in sport management, Bodus is keeping a stiff upper lip about joining an office full of Spartans. 

Outside of work, Bodus is an avid tennis player and a dedicated film buff. Some of his favorite movies include “Election” (1999), starring Matthew Broderick and Reese Witherspoon and “His Girl Friday” (1941), with Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell.

EDGE leadership has expressed enthusiasm with Bodus coming on board.

“Adding Aaron to our team of content creators will deliver more excellent results for our clients,” said Lorri Rishar, EDGE CEO.
