Rissy Mitchell and Jay Kay
This woman is not just a demi-rep, as you think. She is a very important PR and a lady who work a lot to be what she is today. Dont speak like that about people you dont know.
Rissy Mitchell started her professional career as a model. She travelled the world on various assignments, and at the same time studied drama, with a view to acting and presenting in films, television and the theatre.
After 5 years, she decided to turn to something more substantial and in tune with her current ambitions, and went into the field of Public Relations and Events.
Rissy worked with many household brand names, on their marketing campaigns, and introduced new and innovative ideas to ensure that they achieved the desire results, with successful marketing performances.
As well as developing a successful PR and events career, Rissy found that more and more clients were asking her to assist them with the product launches as the main presenter. Quickly she became a confident and fluid presenter, who captured the audience's attention, with her natural style, PR and Media savvy as well as her model good looks.
As Rissy took on more and more presenting work at product launches, road-shows, corporate events etc, she decided to take that leap of faith, and went free-lance as a presenter / writer.
Areas of Expertise
Recently Rissy decided to set up her own production company.
Her production company has many aims, one of which is to bring high quality documentaries and programmes on extreme sports, extreme travel and extreme life-styles to the popular mainstream broadcasting channels.
Having an extreme sports background, combined with her background in PR, Events and marketing, make her uniquely qualified to inspire audiences to take an interest in these areas.
Rissy has built up an impressive portfolio of TV, and corporate presentation experience. She now also writes features for various media, covering luxury brands, luxury lifestyle, extreme sports, celebrity interviews and high profile events.
Rissy also acts as a consultant between brands, events and the press, advising the brand as to which event to sponsor in order to heighten media awareness.
Rissy presented a show earlier in 2006, called ‘Mad About’. This has been sold to America. Upcoming shows are “Battle of the Entrepreneurs� and “House Rage�.
