Halldin PR’s Sofia Gutierrez Selected as Finalist for Sacramento Business Journal’s “40 Under 40”21 Apr
I wasn’t surprised to find out that Halldin Public Relations Vice President Sofia Gutierrez was one of the 100 finalists announced last month for The Sacramento Business Journal’s “40 Under 40.” Sofia embodies just what they’re looking for – she’s one of Sacramento’s dynamic, up-and-coming business leaders who deserves to be recognized for her success at work and for her community contributions.
Her work ethic at Halldin PR is illustrated through the quality, consistent media results she earns for our clients. As the go-to girl for booking our clients on national financial TV networks, Sofia is on a first-name basis with many producers at CNBC and Bloomberg TV. No wonder one of her dreams is to ring the bell at the New York Stock Exchange.
In addition, she is in charge of our firm’s ethnic media outreach, regularly getting our clients’ names on Sacramento’s top Spanish-language TV station Univision and in Vida en el Valle, the Central Valley’s Latino community newspaper.
Beyond work, Sofia’s community service efforts are admirable and demonstrate her commitment to giving back. A long-time member of the Sacramento Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, she was honored as the group’s Volunteer of the Year in 2007. Sofia also helps the local chapter of the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
On a personal level, I enjoy coming to work and seeing Sofia every day. She is easy to work with, never complains, has nothing but nice things to say about everyone, and she brightens the office with her positive attitude. In fact, a client of ours once told Sofia that she is the “sunshine of the office.” Nothing could be closer to the truth, and that’s why I nominated Sofia for this honor.
The Sacramento Business Journal will announce the “40 Under 40” at a special event on Tuesday, April 26.
Good luck, Sofia!
