Biography

Taraneh (terre-UH-nay) Fultz, APR, got her start in public relations at the age of 17, when she was recruited by a publicist at Terry Hines and Associates who’d seen her using her high school newspaper’s film and television beat to build relationships with Bay Area film critics. That internship sparked a lifelong love of the profession, as well as a commitment to mentoring new professionals.

Taraneh works at Cambia Health Solutions (2015-present) where she manages field marketing campaigns and partner marketing strategies for the Idaho, Oregon, Utah and Washington markets. She is also the co-chair of the professional development committee for the Cambia Women's Employee Resource Group and is co-editor of the Cambia Marketing monthly e-newsletter.

Taraneh is accredited in public relations by the Universal Accreditation Board, holds a certificate in project management from Portland State University and has a bachelor’s degree in journalism and public relations from the University of Oregon. The Portland Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America awarded her their 2007 New Professional of the Year. Taraneh, who has both American and Iranian citizenship, lives in Portland, Ore., with her native Oregonian husband, Joe, and two dogs, Oliver and Josephine. Find her on Twitter @taranehfultz.
