Lindsey Mask, communications director to U.S. Rep. Howard “Buck” McKeon for more than five years, has taken a new job with a K Street public relations firm.

The word came at the close of business Friday in Washington, D.C., in the form of an automated reply to an e-mail sent earlier in the day.

“After over five wonderful years with Congressman Buck McKeon, I have moved to a new position,” Mask’s email said.

She provided a new email address at Global Vision Communications, a PR firm whose published client list includes Allbusiness.com, American Bus Association, CBS News, The Direct Marketing Association, Lori Graham Design, Missourians Against Tax Abuse, National Congress of American Indians, United States Chamber of Commerce and Vanderbilt Community Alliance.

Mask, who studied communications at Texas State University, is the founder and president of Ladies DC, a young women’s professional networking group.
