Meet the Publisher
As the owner of Trends Publishing my time is devoted to publishing Trends Magazine, the oldest, continuously published society and lifestyle publication in Arizona. Its graceful evolution has always stayed true to original mission - to entertain and inform the Valley's affluent readers.

They have earned the benefit of choice, and trust Trends to steer them to superior levels of quality, style and integrity.
