About us
Accountable and thought-provoking public relations
“Over 30 years ago, I founded my original PR business with a clear vision: to make public relations accountable and thought-provoking, at a time when it was often dismissed as fluffy and intangible. This ethos has been the driving force behind every workshop, guide, and process we’ve developed and continually refined.
“Our commitment to these principles has earned us a reputation that transcends traditional PR. Many clients and advisors often say, ‘EC-PR is so much more than just a PR company.’ Perhaps it’s time we coined a new term—PR Plus—to better capture our unique approach.
“But I couldn’t do it alone. I’d be lost without my astonishing wingwoman, Liz Churchman, who has been with me since day one, and the incredible team we’ve established.”
