ABOUT ME
I'm Valerie Denise Jones, a three-time mayoral proclamation recipient, award-winning filmmaker, author, celebrity publicist, radio personality, and proud U.S. Army veteran who believes every person has a story worth preserving.
Over the years, I've directed documentaries, produced radio and podcast programming, written books, interviewed celebrities, moderated industry panels, and worked behind the scenes in film, television, and entertainment. My journey has taken me from movie sets and music conferences to film festivals, television studios, and city halls, where I was honored with three mayoral proclamations recognizing my contributions to the arts, cultural storytelling, and community engagement by Mayor Donna Deegan of Jacksonville, Mayor Harvey L. Ward of Gainesville, and Mayor Randy Martin of Hawthorne.
Along the way, I've learned that the greatest reward isn't the recognition. It's hearing someone say, "Your story changed the way I see mine." Whether I'm documenting the life of a Motown legend, producing conversations with influential artists and changemakers, amplifying underrepresented voices, or creating meaningful dialogue through film, books, podcasts, and media, my mission remains the same: to preserve culture, inspire purpose, and ensure that every story has the opportunity to leave a lasting legacy.
My résumé moves like a Netflix series. Every project is a new episode, every challenge is another plot twist, and the season finale is nowhere in sight.
Whether you're looking for a compelling documentary, an engaging radio interview, or a dynamic host who can keep the audience laughing, thinking, and fully awake after lunch, you've come to the right place. From award-winning films and thought-provoking conversations to live events, panel discussions, and celebrity interviews, I specialize in creating experiences that people remember long after the cameras stop rolling. I don't just tell stories. I help people tell theirs.
Warning: Hiring me may result in standing ovations, meaningful conversations, and an inbox full of people asking, "When are you coming back?" Let's create something unforgettable together.
