What clients are saying...
“My publicist was a gem and hiring Smith again is definitely in my plans. Not only was she incredibly hardworking and persistent, I was just awed by her creativity in thinking through how my particular skills, expertise, and experience might fit with current issues and curiosities. I would not have thought of grabbing onto certain news headlines or trends, but her creative ideas for articles and pitches really created the stories that found traction.”
