Hi.
I’m Kelly, a communications, marketing and events professional who likes making complex things clear, bringing good ideas to life and creating experiences that actually connect with people.
My career has taken me through a few different corners of communications and marketing, from managing large trade show programs and partner events around the world to leading enterprise communications for a global workforce of more than 12,000 employees.
Today, much of my work happens inside HR, where I partner with subject matter experts and senior leaders to shape communications around what employees need to know, how they’re likely to experience it and what will help the message land. That includes enterprise campaigns, executive messaging, leader communications, intranet content, digital signage and on-camera video.
I enjoy the mix of strategy and execution. I like being involved in the thinking behind the work and then actually bringing it to life.
That same mindset is probably why I’ve always loved events. Earlier in my career, I managed annual calendars of 20–30 trade shows and conferences, six-figure event budgets and partner events across the U.S. and internationally. I loved the combination of strategy, logistics, creativity and problem-solving required to take something from an idea on a calendar to an experience happening in real life.
Whether I’m building a communications campaign or planning an event, the part I enjoy most is figuring out how to connect the dots: what are we trying to accomplish, who are we trying to reach and what will make them actually care?
That’s the thread that has followed me throughout my career, and it’s the kind of work I want to keep doing.
