Healthcare Realty spokeswoman jumps to Revive

Local office of California PR firm again hires from big-name local company

Health care public relations firm Revive, which opened a Cummins Station office early this year, has recruited the former manager of corporate communications for Healthcare Realty Trust to help it build its national book of business.

Gabrielle Hannafan (formerly Andrés) comes to Revive as marketing and business development manager and will oversee the firm’s sales and marketing work. She becomes the sixth professional to join Revive’s local office and her hiring comes just a week after the firm said it had added a former DaVita executive. Hannafan had spent more than five years at Healthcare Realty.

“The diversity and expertise of the team we’ve built in Nashville over the past six months is a testament to Nashville’s health care talent pool, its thriving health care industry and to our firm’s ability to deliver a uniquely in-depth health care perspective to our clients, ” said Brandon Edwards, Revive’s president and founder. “Gabrielle’s background in corporate, investor and media relations will be extremely valuable in helping us identify trends in the market where we can help position clients for growth.”
