PR queen Nicola Parish left her native Dublin, Ireland at 18, moving to NYC as an au pair originally. She ventured into the PR and entertainment world before launching her own company in 2003. What started out as a fashion/lifestyle PR firm took a turn after Parish worked on her first premiere for the film ELF. She has since gone on to work on some of Hollywood’s biggest blockbusters, including the Harry Potter and Marvel movies.

Parish is now the ‘go to’ person for clients who want a star-studded red carpet for their event, with an enviable contact list of who’s who in Hollywood.

Nicola works with all of the top studios, including Universal, Warner Bros., Disney, Columbia, Netflix, Hulu, and Lionsgate. Parish PR now has offices in NYC and LA, with teams on both coasts. Nicola divides home life between Brooklyn and the southern Catskills. She sits on the advisory board of Self Help Africa.
