MAUREEN KEDES Maureen Kedes is the Founder and President of Vertex Communications Company, a public relations and marketing firm based in Los Angeles. Vertex Communications specializes in promotions for individuals, companies, products and services nationwide in the health, fitness, beauty and medical arenas. Prior to founding Vertex Communications Company, Maureen Kedes worked as the Director of Marketing at The Pacari Company, a Beverly Hills based public relations, advertising, marketing and event planning firm. Known for her bold and gutsy style, Ms. Kedes really 'goes to bat' for her clients, giving them hands-on, personal service. "I really saw a need to combine good, old-fashioned services with modern advances to our clients' advantage. I won't work with any person, company or product unless I believe in them one hundred and ten percent, so that I'm as enthused as they are about what they do. Believe me, that enthusiasm catches on." Producers and editors alike are aware of Ms. Kedes' approach. Carin Wong from "Entertainment Tonight" says, "Ms. Kedes was tenacious and crafty...she was as nice as can be, but relentless at the same time. I guess it worked, she eventually got her segment produced!" Prior to The Pacari Company, Ms. Kedes, a graduate of the Ivy League's Columbia University, spent several years as a freelance public relations and advertising writer and as spokesperson for several major corporations across the country including: Toshiba, Yamaha, Sharp Electronics, Con Agra Foods, Oxford University Press; and with companies such as: The Black Shopping Network, Summit Nuclear, Interactive Telesis, Harris-Volsic Creative, Intellicorp, and Pacific Masterworks. Maureen Kedes also worked as a Test Marketing Director at CBS Television. BIOGRAPHY JEROME CLEARY
