“I’ve worked with Kat Garcia for several years on many of her accounts and I must say, I’m a big fan. She always takes the time to listen to what we need and to ensure we are given newsworthy, accurate and timely information. Considering the volume of news we handle every day, that’s the kind of added value we appreciate in the publicists and PR agencies we enjoy working with.”

"If every publicist were as helpful, honest, and efficient as Stacey Davis, my job would be simple. I have worked with her for many years, and they have all been a pleasure. Not only is she professional to the Max, she also "gets’" it. She really does understand what all the parties’ involved need. She understands the client, the photojournalist, and the needs of the celebrities."

"Working for a publication, we see PR firms from the other side of the barricade. We value a PR firm not, as a client would, in terms of space that it gets from us, but in terms of how clearly the news angle is explained. Davis Public Relations is one of such valued PR firms and we work well with it."
