Hi! I’m Kelly.

I’m a brand strategist, marketing and communications leader, and SVA Masters in Branding graduate with 8+ years’ experience delivering world-class strategies and nurturing cross-functional teams.

  • Most recently Director of Corporate Reputation and Strategy at APCO, a global advisory and advocacy firm, where I led reputation and brand building efforts for major clients.

  • Graduate of the Masters in Branding program in 2024 and recipient of the Lauren Zaleski Award, the program's highest honor for academic excellence.

  • Work experience has spanned start-ups, in-house, and agency environments. Have worn many hats, working on everything from launching an independent grocery store to advocating for nuclear energy.

  • Had stints working at a top restaurant and wine bar, where I deepened my love for food, wine, and hospitality, and learned the true meaning of patience and grace under pressure.

  • Hiked 300 miles of the Camino de Santiago in October 2024 and on the hunt for my next big adventure.
