Laurie Olvera does more than answer phones and make clients feel like they're a part of our family from the moment they walk through the door (though she does both things extraordinarily well). Her job duties include assisting with billing, payroll, expense reports, shipping, proofreading and much more. Duties that a Cosmetology License and being the first female, first person under 30 and first non-business owner to be elected to the City of Reedley Planning Commission surely didn't prepare her for. She is an invaluable family member at JP Marketing and nothing gets done right, if Laurie doesn't have her hand in it.

He was inducted into the Central California Advertising and Marketing Hall of Fame in 2001.
