Welcome Esther Campi and Jeremy Holden!


Over the next ten days we'll proudly welcome a pair of the Research Triangle’s marketing titans into my evening class at Carolina!

For twenty years, Esther Campi has been a trusted adviser to America’s top leaders, from Fortune 500 CEOs to U.S. senators. After earning her Masters from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern, Esther served as press secretary to U.S. Sen. Fred Thompson; as Capital Bureau chief of the Biloxi Sun-Herald; and as the SVP of Communications of the Metro Atlanta Chamber. Along the way, she worked closely with the executive leadership of GE, Georgia-Pacific, and Coca-Cola. She somehow also found time to earn two awards from the Associated Press before founding Campi & Company in Chapel Hill where she specializes in executive branding, reputation management, and public affairs.
