WWLCC Board Member Spotlight
Josie Passafiume
Senior Account Executive
Advance Ohio and Mlive

I am currently a Senior Account Executive for Advance Ohio managing funeral home clients in Michigan and Northeast Ohio. I also work with families. I am part of a team responsible for meeting sales goals and increasing revenue. This vertical is very important to our company as it is a multimillion-dollar category.


The WWLCC is proud to partner with Perry High School’s Learning to Internship Class to host an intern
this school year. 
Alyssa Vis is a vibrant young lady who grew tremendously over the last few months. She has helped the WWLCC by researching new potential members, writing letters to business owners, assisting at various chamber events, and interacting and learning more about our chamber members and their respective business.
