The “Lucy”
Behind LucyCo
Lucy set up her own shop 15 years ago, working out of a tiny office in Midtown with $2,500 she got from a second mortgage on her Honda. Through hard work, perseverance and resiliency, she grew her business into an award-winning public relations firm that still works with many of the same clients from the early days.
Lucy’s always out and about in town, whether she’s supporting local businesses, serving on committees or drumming up new business. She’s built her firm based on trust, integrity, quality and going above and beyond. |

“Since I graduated from Oregon eons ago, I haven’t stopped being passionate about my career. Working on challenging and creative projects with amazing clients and an awesome team … who can beat that? Whether I’m facilitating a diverse group helping them come to consensus, developing a branding campaign or helping clients take on tough issues, it’s the variety and fast pace I enjoy. ” – Lucy
