PR Girl Rants! with Josephine "JoJo" Pada

Josephine "JoJo" Pada always knew she wanted to be in Public Relations!  She began her career at the prestigious Terrie Williams Agency immediately after she graduated

from the University of Southern California in 1994, where she started as an intern for Ms. Williams. Pada worked for the Motown Cafe theme restaurant chain, where she honed her skills and made necessary connections within the

entertainment industry and at major media outlets. She was responsible for all celebrity-related  events at the chain's flagship location in New York City. She contributed heavily to the star-filled gala openings in Las Vegas and Orlando, FL.

Eventually, Jojo became the the Founder and President of Ignition PR, a premier Gospel/ faith-based PR, and

Marketing company. Over the years she has worked with several artists such as Mary Mary, Israel Houghton,

Donnie McClurkin, Shirley Caesar, Fred Hammond, Marvin Sapp, Brian Courtney Wilson, Hezekiah

Walker... just to name a few!

Join Josephine "JoJo" Pada and myself as we rant about:

1. When she got bit by the entertainment bug
   
2. Who inspired her to become public relations expert (hint:  she is a fictional character from a TV show) ;
   
3. What is was like working for the premier and impactful African American publicist in entertainment
