Justin Quinn, the founder of Headline Consultants Inc., is a former award-winning reporter who gives any political candidate, advocacy group, public agency or corporation the upper hand when dealing with the competitive media.

A 10-year veteran of journalism, Justin worked for several newspapers, winning awards wherever he went for his feature reporting, news beat coverage and personality profiles. The month before his departure from the news business, he was honored by the Pennsylvania Newspaper Association for his consumer-related investigative reporting. His stories have been reprinted all over the world.

After watching an array of politicians, corporations and public agencies stumble awkwardly through their relationships with his editors and fellow reporters, Justin finally left journalism and pursued his longstanding vision of opening a consulting firm that would help clients navigate the shark-infested waters of the print, radio and television media markets.

Justin understands what it's like under the glare of the spotlight. His high-profile reporting landed him on MSNBC's "Live and Direct with Rita Cosby," as well as FOX News Channel's "On the Record with Greta Van Susteren" as a guest correspondent. He also contributed to a live news radio show in Los Angeles, California.

Working closely with clients, Justin develops strong and effective publicity, engaging promotions and political campaigns designed to maximize positive exposure and rally the support of the public. Justin Quinn breaks the traditional thinking about public and media relations and brings an aggressive and unique approach to the profession.

Justin's mission - and the mission of Headline Consultants - is to help people convey what they really mean by finding the right words to deliver their messages and by ensuring that those messages don't get lost in translation.

Born and raised in central Pennsylvania, Justin has a vested interest in seeing small communities thrive with good-hearted elected officials, generous public agencies and prosperous businesses.
