Jan Howard
Partner
Jan has nearly 30 years’ experience in public relations, integrated marketing, media (from the Tulsa Daily World to Reuters), legislative advocacy, fundraising, risk management communications, employee communications, and consumer relations. Nationally accredited in PR, Jan began her career in Washington, D.C. as a lobbyist for an international oil firm, and then covered the industry as the Oil & Gas Journal editor for a major newspaper.
Jan uses her communications skills in her free time, volunteering and fundraising for local non-profits, posing for a skin cancer awareness campaign, and tucking in a bit of travel with her niece, Brie, and grandniece, Remi. And, for nearly a baker’s dozen of years, she’s been part of Tucson’s infamous annual pirogi and Christmas cookie making party.
She moved to Tucson in 1989 to lead the marketing launch of what is now known as the Sarver Heart Center for the University of Arizona Health Services Center. Following that, she joined Carondelet Health Network, Southern Arizona’s largest healthcare provider, leading marketing and public relations. After 22 years of promoting health care services, Jan joined NüPOINT to apply her knowledge and expertise to other industry sectors. Jan was named Inside Tucson Business’s “Woman of Influence — Mentorship” in 2015. Additionally, she was a past president of the Public Relations Society of America, Tucson Chapter, and a two-term board member for the Western Region.
