Candace McPhillips

Associate Vice President

Candace McPhillips doesn’t just land stories — she helps shape the ones worth telling. As Associate Vice President on Gregory’s clean tech and sustainability team, she brings poise, strategy, and a journalist’s instincts to every campaign.

A former journalist, Candace knows how the media thinks and what it takes to earn attention in a crowded field. She’s developed comprehensive media strategies for high-stakes announcements, secured feature coverage for startups in top-tier outlets, and advised clients through complex industry shifts with calm, steady guidance. Her style is thoughtful, strategic, and grounded in what will drive real results. Clients trust her to keep campaigns on track, ideas flowing, and messaging sharp.

Candace helps clients think like editors, identifying the stories, insights, and trends that will matter most to reporters before they hit the mainstream. Her guidance helps clients stay ahead of the curve and attract more meaningful media attention by offering timely, original perspectives.

Off the clock, she’s probably exploring a new city, hunting for the best local coffee shop, or swapping book recs with friends. But even then, she’s likely still thinking about how to help a client win.
