Having witnessed their growth within the company over the years, it’s clear that they embody the values and spirit that have defined FerenComm’s success.


FerenComm recently elevated veterans on its team, Krista Zoch and Emily Hunter, to the position of Senior Vice President, coinciding with the PR agency’s 30-year milestone, which was established by Sheila Feren Thurston.

Previously serving as vice presidents at the same firm, both Zoch and Hunter are now set to maintain their focus on client strategy, events, and brand work. Their responsibilities will span across various accounts including Apple TV+, Amazon’s Prime Video, AMC Networks, Disney Entertainment Television, Audible, Starz, and more. Both individuals will remain part of the FerenComm executive team, alongside Executive Vice President Stephanie Baumoel and Vice President Erin Santucci.

Zoch and Hunter are based in New York and report to Feren Thurston.

Working with Sheila and our enthusiastic team as we drive FerenComm’s ongoing development and highlight compelling narratives is a privilege for me,” Zoch stated. “With over three decades of achievements behind us, I am thrilled about leading our team in setting new benchmarks within the industry. It’s a source of pride for me to uphold Sheila’s vision, and it’s an extraordinary honor to assist our clients with their needs while working alongside such a committed and driven team.
