Metro Public Relations

ABOUT




WHO WE ARE


Metro Public Relations is under the direction of a team that got its start at various massive entertainment & corporate marketing firms. We came together to build a company that breaks tradition and elevates our clients' profiles. This includes developing bicultural campaigns that bridge the US market with the increasingly influential Latino market via our offices in Mexico City, and Bogota, Colombia.

Metro Public Relations works diligently to evolve each brand of personality, corporation and non-profit as well as create opportunities for them to cross-pollinate. We listen closely to each client and build a campaign that considers multi-platform and cross-promotional elements and utilizes traditional print and broadcast outlets as well as social media, consumer generated content and grassroots public relations initiatives.

OUR TEAM

> Tess Finkle - President

The seed of a midwife and forensic pathologist, Tess Finkle grew up around the constant reminder that life is too short to not be fearless. Her unorthodox upbringing serves her well in a life quest to make this world a better place one positive news story at a time. After sampling various parts of the entertainment industry, Finkle founded Metro Public Relations, formerly known as Tess Finkle PR. The company quickly grew from a one-woman-couch-crashing show to an established international PR company that services actors, non-profit organizations, events, corporate brands and more. Tess keeps with her good-news agenda and launched the first series of regular charity-focused segments for E! News. She continues to book these pieces that highlight celebrities who take social action and educate fans on how to get involved. Finkle also holds a position on the Artist and Athletes Alliance board of advisors, helping celebrities learn about the issues that face our current administration, as well as sits on St. Jude Children's Research Hospital Hollywood advisory board.
