Abbie S. Fink
President
Background: Fink is president of award-winning marketing communications agency HMA Public Relations as well as host of both the Copper State of Mind and PRGN Presents podcasts. Within the community, Fink is marketing committee co-chair at Congregation Beth Israel, serves on the Common Sense Media Advisory Council, and Valley Youth Theatre Board.
Key to success: “I work well under pressure and focus on honesty and integrity in everything I do. In addition, someone once told me I am a connector, something in which I take great pride, be it connecting other business leaders with potential clients or vendors, causes and organizations, or – of course – the media.”
Source of pride: “I’m proud of my tenure at HMA, our talented team, and the many clients we’ve served over the years, especially those that are now providing economic sovereignty for Arizona’s Native American communities, access to resources/programs for individuals with disabilities, cultural shifts in how we view mental health, and support for those struggling with substance use.”
Surprising fact: “The answer used to be my lifelong love of Donny Osmond, but thanks to social media, most everyone knows that! Beyond that, I have an unnatural fear of birds. A pigeon once flew into our office through the fireplace and landed on me. I screamed. Fortunately, a co-worker was able to coax it out the window, while simultaneously calming me down.”
