The way people discover brands has changed.

We make sure you’re part of the answer.

From Google to ChatGPT, from press features to partnerships, to real-world experiences people can step into, we position your brand to show up where your audience is.

What we do

Three integrated divisions working together to build, amplify, and activate your brand.

Mugsy PR

Visual storytelling through photography, and brand identity design that captures attention and drives engagement.

Mugsy Events

End-to-end event production and brand activations that create memorable experiences and lasting impressions.

The Owners

Mugsy PR is owned and managed by husband and wife team founder Emily Taffel-Cohen and Ryan Cohen, Creative Director & AI Strategist

Emily Taffel-Cohen

A seasoned publicist with a deep understanding of luxury markets and HNW audiences, Emily leads Mugsy’s narrative and positioning strategy, ensuring every client shows up with intention and authority.

Ryan Cohen

Blending creative direction with emerging technology, Ryan designs how brands translate into modern discovery, where storytelling meets search.

About Us

Mugsy PR was built on a belief that hasn’t changed:
A great story, told well, can open any door.

What has changed is how people find those stories.

Today, discovery doesn’t just happen in magazines or media placements. It happens in search bars. In algorithms. In AI-driven conversations. We exist at that intersection or press and presence.

That means we understand both sides of the equation:
How to craft a story that people trust AND how to position it so it’s heard above the noise.

Our Focus

We specialize in brands that operate at a high level and expect the same from their partners.
