“Melissa, Cary, Meilani, Beth and Genesa consistently deliver strategic, innovative, and ground-breaking work for their clients, and have helped Rogers & Cowan/PMK expand our service capabilities and continue to grow our unprecedented brand client roster,” said Mark Owens, CEO, Rogers and Cowan/PMK. “Through their phenomenal efforts, and under Shirley’s tremendous leadership, R&C/PMK’s brand marketing practice is positioned better than ever to influence trends and create defining moments and experiences for our clients.”

Since joining Rogers & Cowan/PMK in 2016, Hughes has been a key driver in the agency’s continuing expansion from a PR and media relations firm to a fully integrated marketing and communications agency. As part of that process, Hughes has helped build – and now leads – Rogers & Cowan/PMK’s Brand Marketing division, which features six distinct practice groups.

Hughes’ senior staff also includes Alisa Granz, Executive Vice President, Consumer Marketing, who will continue to oversee the division’s largest practice. As well as Meg Grogan, Vice President, Client Relationships. In addition, Victoria Greene, Executive Vice President, Brand Growth, Partnerships and Experiential, will report in to Hughes, and will be supported by Steve Doctrow, Executive Vice President, Partnerships.

The promotion of Schumer, Kwok, Weiss, Andrews, and Garbarino, follows the merger of Rogers & Cowan and PMK this past July, which brought together the two largest and most successful media relations and brand marketing firms in Hollywood to form Rogers & Cowan/PMK, the preeminent integrated marketing and communications agency in global entertainment.
