Jim is President of PR Talent and founded the firm in 1998. With more than 30 years of PR industry experience in Southern California, he boasts strong contacts throughout the region.  Prior to hatching PR Talent, he served as EVP of PainePR (now Citizen Relations), SVP of Rogers & Cowan’s Corporate Division, and launched his career with Burson-Marsteller in New York.

Jim has won a Silver Anvil, announcing Taco Bell bought the Liberty Bell, renamed it the Taco Liberty Bell and was moving it to Irvine.  Yup, that happened.  Also auctioned off Wild Mustangs (real ones) for Ford Motor Company, promoted boxing under the wing of the Spruce Goose, and held a séance in Elvis’ bedroom. Most of all he loves finding people cool jobs, changing lives, and working with a world class team of recruiters!
