Billy Hallowell, who’s been covering—and commenting on—Christian culture and news for almost 20 years, is joining PureFlix.com as its new director of communications.
Dave Migdal is the Vice President of Communications and Cause Marketing of Pure Flix Digital based in Southern California. He began working with the division shortly after its launch and is dedicated to helping Pure Flix get its message out clearly, effectively and with impact.
After graduating with BS in Journalism from the University of Colorado, Dave began his career as a newspaper reporter. He worked for such publications as the Denver Post and San Antonio Light covering pro and college sports, business and technology.
He pivoted to public relations and corporate communications after a successful run in the newspaper business, joining Sony Electronics to help the company launch ground-breaking technologies and products, including everything from DVD to Internet TV. He also played an instrumental role in creating alliances with Sony Pictures and Sony Music, bringing the three divisions together to form a powerful, unified marketing entity.
Dave started in his own PR/communications company in 2011 and helped companies—ranging in size from start-ups to multi-nationals—reach their potential with a proven mix of PR and perseverance.
A pro basketball fan for 40+ years, he spends his free time with his family at the beach (whenever a game's not being televised).

Every year around this time, people take the time to share their Christmas wishes and prayers with friends, family and their congregations. Well, the Pure Flix Family wanted to join in this year and share its Christmas wishes with you...our extended family.
Chances are, we share many of the same hopes, dreams and prayers as you and your family. We make this assumption based on the fact that as a Pure Flix supporter, you're seeking many of the same things for your family as we want for ours...clean, wholesome, faith-based entertainment that is a welcome alternative to the Hollywood fare that's becoming far too pervasive.
