result has always given me such happiness! With that said, Miami fits my personality to a T. ML: With over 20 years of experience in Marketing and PR, what has surprised you most about the Miami market and its appetite for luxury, creativity, and storytelling? After more than two decades working in marketing and public relations, the biggest surprise about Miami hasn’t been it’s recent growth—it’s been the emotional sophistication of the consumer and how luxury, creativity, and storytelling are deeply personal here. Miami isn’t just another market; it’s a cultural moodboard, a city where also the unspoken values are louder than any billboard. ML: Between your agency, Marketing and PR campaigns for your clients, and your extensive work in the art world, how do you stay creatively energized and connected to the pulse of culture? I love constantly being on the go and finding adventure in the everyday – my fiancé says I never rest! I love going to galleries, museums and concerts on the weekends. I have to try every new restaurant that opens and I’m constantly going to brand launches and events. This keeps me entertained, inspired and on the pulse of what’s new! ML: Miami is so prevalent in Art, specifically. What prompted you to begin working more deeply with the art industry around eight years ago? What got you interested and involved initially with the art world? What got you interested and involved initially with the art world? I’ve always been friends with a large network of artists. I also collect artwork and I have personal relationships with a lot of gallerists. Years ago, I began helping my artist friends out and making introductions to galleries and showing my network their work. I was doing this for some time before I realized that maybe there’s something there; so I developed a special program of representation and Marketing/PR for artists as a service offering by my agency and we now represent a roster of artists. I’ve become quite well known for this over the years. ML: You do a lot of philanthropic work as well. Tell us a bit more about this aspect and any specific projects in this realm you want to share a bit about? Giving back has always been an important part of who I am and what I stand for. My agency Courtney Daniels Consulting often donates our services and fundraises for non-profits such as Vibrant Emotional Health, St Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Beauty for Freedom, Humane Society just to name a few. We also always partner our clients with philanthropies and build this into our strategies, as it’s so important for every brand is also giving back to a cause they stand for.
