Tell me more about your company, what do you do?
KORITZ Communications is a public relations firm that I founded. We specialize in helping clients from various industries and sectors build and maintain their public image. Our work includes strategic communications, media relations, thought leadership, and crisis management. We have worked with hot startups and prestigious clients such as the United Nations, Google, Aqua-Yield, BodyGuardz, and Homie, among others. Our goal is to craft compelling narratives that elevate our clients’ brands so they can achieve their business objectives.
What is your favorite part about the work that you do?
The best thing about the work I do is the diversity and challenge of each project. Every client brings a unique set of goals and challenges, which requires a lot of research and creative and strategic thinking. I also enjoy the opportunity to work closely with executives from influential brands, helping them build and execute their personal thought leadership platforms in order to effectively communicate with their core audience.
How has being a member of The Shop Workspace impacted your work and creativity?
Being a member of The Shop has helped to increase my productivity and creativity by providing a dynamic and collaborative environment. The space fosters creativity through its modern design and the diverse community of professionals and companies it attracts. The networking atmosphere and collaborative spirit also present opportunities for me to drive new lines of business and sign new clients.

One recent memorable achievement while working at The Shop signing a high-profile client. The collaborative atmosphere and access to state-of-the-art resources at The Shop played a critical role in securing this client. We also had fun celebrating the win in the open work areas of The Shop.

My favorite thing about the community is the sense of camaraderie and support among members. It’s a vibrant mix of professionals from different industries, all willing to share their knowledge and collaborate.

Any advice for fellow members or entrepreneurs considering coworking spaces?
My advice for fellow members or entrepreneurs considering coworking spaces is to fully engage with the community. Take advantage of networking opportunities, attend events, and collaborate with other members. The synergy and shared knowledge within a coworking space can greatly enhance your business and personal growth. Also, choose a space that aligns with your work style and offers the resources you need to be productive.
What are your top three favorite spots in SLC?
My top three favorite spots in Salt Lake City are:
- All the local hiking and biking trails
- Downtown on a summer night during the Twilight concert series
- All the major ski resort within a 40 minute drive of downtown SLC
