A multi-faceted leader, Heather has the keen understanding and insight to know how to run an integrated campaign and what it takes for our clients’ stories to become the news. “Our clients have experienced the power of publicity. My team of publicists, many of them former journalists and reporters, have secured local, regional, and national exposure on the most desired of media: the Today show, The Doctors and publications that include USA Today, Self Magazine, and Woman’s World,” she says. “I love being in partnership with our clients, from a new product launch to creating the stories that their target customers cannot wait to read. These stories connect our clients’ products with their target customers to help improve and change lives.”
