 About Us

Amy Zimmerman founded A.Z. Communications, bringing 25+ years of marketing communications and public relations experience to investment managers, professional service firms and non-for-profit organizations. Unlike typical agencies, A.Z. Communications is a small group of consultants—marketers and public relations specialists, writers and graphic designers—each with 15-20+ years expertise in their field. We bring the most appropriate, relevant and experienced (not to mention fun) consultants to your team.
