Linda has been championing the hospitality industry since founding MaxEx Public Relations in 1997. She and her team blend old-school PR instincts with a modern, results-driven approach, delivering strategic marketing campaigns, sharp, no-fluff communications, dynamic visual assets, and social media platforms that actually move the needle. Backed by a hard-earned “rolodex” built over decades, MaxEx connects clients to the right people, at the right time, with impact.
MaxEx has worked with over 400 Connecticut and New York restaurants to date. Other fields of concentration include wine and spirit brands, municipality engagement, health & wellness, and real estate collectives. Linda has led media tours throughout Friuli Venezia Giulia, Italy, cooked on TV shows across America to tout Ghirardelli Chocolate’s baking line, hosted Side Dish, the Allied Domecq/Pernod Ricard-sponsored food and wine radio show on COX Media, and is active on the speaker circuit, sharing her marketing expertise to audiences at the The International Restaurant & Foodservice Show in New York, Marcum Events, The CT Writers’ Conference, and the Women’s Business Development Council.
Linda is the co-founder of the New England Culinary Group.
