About Allen Elfman
Broadcasting brilliance, public relations with punchlines, and customer care with a side of charisma.
Raised in Boston and battle-tested early on, I began my professional journey in the United States Army—where I learned that discipline, duty, and determination aren’t just words, they’re a lifestyle.
After my service, I made waves—literally—by becoming a merchant marine based out of Bayonne, New Jersey
That chapter took me across Europe, giving me a global perspective and a knack for navigating both high seas and high-stakes situations and International Negotiations.
In 2001, I switched gears and took the helm of a private investigative agency known as Operations S.T.I.N.G. There, I cracked one of the most emotional cases of my career—locating two daughters who had been missing for 30 years, all within hours of being hired. Yes, I find that kind of success deeply rewarding.
By 2003, I dropped anchor in Sedona, Arizona to raise my family in the red rock serenity. While my early work in Sedona was steeped in hospitality, I eventually turned the camera on the town—creating and hosting the long-running weekly program Visit Sedona TV.
Turns out, I was a natural in the media spotlight. My ability to connect with people, ask the right questions, and craft compelling stories led me into public relations—an industry I find both effortless and electrifying.
Shortly thereafter, I launched MY AZ TV, where I continue to capture events, interview local legends, and produce captivating content for Arizona’s vibrant communities. My interviews have grown to include political figures, and here’s the kicker: every candidate I’ve ever endorsed has been elected. I don’t just talk the talk—I help others walk into office.
While all of this fuels my passion, I still wear another hat—one that comes with a name tag and a necktie. As Store Manager for Verizon in the Village of Oak Creek, I’ve proudly led the top-performing store in our district. I bring the same empathy, energy, and enthusiasm to customer service that I bring to the camera—just ask the 30+ happy customers who left 5-star Google reviews with my name attached.
On the side, I moonlight as a content creator and social media strategist for a few select clients—turning clicks into connections and likes into loyalty.
Have a project, a problem, or just want to say hello?
Let’s connect. After all, communication is kind of my thing.
