Amy Summers became an entrepreneur in her mid-20s, launching her first company, Pitch Publicity, in February 2003, during a rapidly changing climate for communication and media relations. Her campaigns have resulted in billions of media impressions worldwide and she’s credited as the first to strategize live media interviews at both the deepest and highest points of the planet (scientific laboratory Aquarius, 63 feet beneath the sea; Mount Everest summit, 21,000 feet above sea level). With more than 20 years experience in developing communication strategies for influential experts and corporations, she launched, “The Pitch with Amy Summers,” on Amazon’s Alexa in 2018, which became one of the most highly ranked communications flash briefings, leading to the launch of her second company, INICIVOX®, in February 2020, designed to help individuals improve a wide-range of soft skills centered on the complexity of communications. Summers earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Public Relations with a minor in Health Science Education from the University of Florida where she has also served as an adjunct lecturer teaching, “Pitching Persuasion.” In 2021, both Pitch Publicity and INICIVOX®, were awarded Best Diversity & Inclusion Campaign from PR News for producing the six-part virtual seminar series, “Identifying The Elephant In The Room: Critical Communication Strategies in the Face of Racism.” Summers currently serves as board member and founding partner of Naturally New York.
