Aaron Blank
CEO & President
When Aaron accepted a role as a Fearey senior account executive in 2005, he had little idea that he was stepping onto a path that would lead to ownership of one of the region’s most iconic public relations firms.
Since taking over as Fearey’s CEO and president in 2014, Aaron has led the firm through continuous double-digital annual growth, and solidified the firm’s reputation as a creative communications pioneer. When the City of Seattle secured its first NHL team in decades, local leaders turned to Aaron to help steer the rollout. When a construction disaster brought despair to one of the city’s most familiar streets, he was enlisted to help bring clarity to the confusion.
Named to the “40 under 40” list by the Puget Sound Business Journal and PR Week, Aaron is committed to making a lasting impact throughout the region and beyond. He is involved with The ArtsFund and Children’s Hopechest, and served as the second-youngest president of the Public Relations Global Network, an organization with 54 offices on six continents.
Aaron is a firm believer in the “never eat alone” mentality, with one lonely exception: breakfast. If anyone would like to join him at 4:30am, they’re more than welcome.
JACQUE GAIRRETT
Senior Vice President
Jacque’s publicity career began in New York City where she worked with a variety of A-list nonprofit, health care, tech and consumer clients focused on everything from HIV/AIDS and breast cancer, to climate change and global health, to education, children and families.
At Fearey, Jacque oversees the agency’s health care and nonprofit practice, and is well-known for her creative media storytelling and thought leadership efforts, helping clients get published nationally.
A native Oregonian, Jacque now calls Montana home and spends her free time working on her house, traversing the outdoors and testing out new recipes in her kitchen.
JESSE REHM
SVP, Strategy
Jesse is a Seattle native who spent 17 years living throughout the country, building her career in loyalty marketing, before landing in Portland, Oregon and becoming Fearey’s first in-house Creative Director. Now SVP of Strategy, she is bringing extensive knowledge of creative design, brand, and customer strategy to each account. She has experience working on digital user experience, loyalty marketing, customer journey mapping, and building creative for clients like Dunkin’, The Home Depot, Verizon and Alaska Airlines.
When the work day is done, Jesse spends time with her family outside as much as possible. Biking, skiing, camping – anything for some fresh air.
RANDY COTÉ
SVP, Public Relations
Randy Cote is a public relations and marketing leader with extensive experience in brand strategy and media relations in the Seattle market over the past 15 years.

At Fearey, he leverages his expertise to help clients enhance their public image and connect with audiences.
Born and raised in Washington, you’ll find him on the trails year-round, cross-country skiing in the winter, in his Kraken seats during hockey season, and playing hockey every Sunday night.
