As a freelance writer covering the Valley’s restaurant scene, I rely on public relations representatives to keep me up to date on new dining destinations and the activities of our top chefs. Susan is one of the best, known for her professionalism, close working relationships with those in the restaurant industry, and her ability to cut through fluff and give reporters exactly the information they need without the useless hype that makes us hit the delete button. She makes writers’ jobs easier and showcases her clients at their best.
