ItÕs no secret to those who know her: Tanya Jones is a mover and shaker. A five-star producer and a woman who knows how to get things done. But what sets her apart from the rest is she has heartŃand a lot of soul. Case in point: The same day Tanya received word of a job offer at Food Network in New York City she was also offered two other jobs in social work in her hometown of Philadelphia. She was passionate about both careers and while it was a tough decision, before she knew it, she was on the Peter Pan bus heading up route 95. Her thought was this: she could follow her dream of being a producer while at the same time helping others. Her first job was as the assistant to the Senior Vice President of Operations at Food Network. There at Food, she moved up the ranks quickly to Talent Coordinator, Assistant Producer, and Associate Producer. She left Food in 2003 and began her freelance career as a Producer. Now she can continue to combine both her loves into one nice package: A producer with a social conscious. ItÕs a rare trait in the crazy, frenetic world of television production.

Since 2003, Tanya has produced countless segments and shows for HGTV, Food Network, Discovery, and PBS. Lifestyle television couldnÕt be a better fit for this October-born Libra, ŅWe love beauty, harmony and balance,Ó she says. SheÕs also produced for VH1 and is currently working on a Disney Channel show called Johnny And The Sprites. Tanya also produces television networking events in conjunction with Gallo Wines. Later on this fall, she plans on co-producing a Swap-o-rama-rama in Philadelphia.

After almost ten years in television production, Tanya created her own side hustle. Her company Perfect Pitch Media organizes and secures promotions and publicity for companies, chefs, mixologists, and anyone else looking to promote their passion. Perfect Pitch also produces press releases, bios, video reels, and offers media training, and media tours for spokespersons and experts. Currently her clients include Peas of Mind, iFood Studios, and the organization, A Fight To Win.

While she loves her titles as Producer, swapper and entrepreneur, she says thereÕs no role as rewarding as that of a mother. Tanya and fiancˇ Rob Knolle have a 17 month old son Justin. They reside in Baychester.
