M. MARTA SIPEKI
“Communicating is like a dance. It flows best when both partners pay attention and don’t step on each other’s feet.”
Marta brings more than 30 years experience in public relations consulting, public affairs management, community relations, economic development, fundraising and special events management to the firm’s portfolio of experience. She’s also won numerous awards for her marketing work.
“Our practice is really about working with people. At the very core, we’re all the same. We seek simple, truthful information that improves or enhances our lives. That’s why just ‘throwing stuff out there’ doesn’t work today. It has to be strategic, thoughtful and mindful of what the marketplace wants.”
She has represented corporations, non-profit organizations, governmental entities and quasi-government organizations. And, she has directed marketing programs for chambers of commerce, served as on-air personality for WOSU-AM-FM-TV in Columbus, Ohio, and was one of the first female executives for the Boy Scouts of America.
Marta graduated cum laude, with a bachelor’s degree in communications arts and sciences, Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, and has completed some post graduate work.
Z.J. CZUPOR
“Good ideas come from the brain. Great ideas come from the heart. Outstanding ideas come from inspiration.”
Z.J. has more than 35 years experience in public relations and marketing counseling representing clients for advertising/public relations firms, and in managing public relations programs for corporations, health care and higher education institutions. As a consultant, he has represented a broad range of clients from Fortune 500 companies and divisions to start-ups, as well as nonprofits, associations, and municipalities.
“I enjoy the cross-over of ideas you get from working in different industries and sectors. I consider myself a generalist. But, my specialty is strategic communications, which matters across the board.”
He earned his master’s degree in mass communications from the University of Denver, and his bachelor’s in journalism and public relations from the University of Kansas.
Z.J. is the founder of MindBenders, a men’s monthly discussion group; and is an award-winning author.
