ABOUT ME
MY STORYBorn into a family of storytellers, I fell in love with marketing at an early age. I’ve idealized it, I’ve studied it, and I’ve been lucky enough to have a career in it.
After seven years at Leo Burnett, I was ready to leave Chicago (my hometown) and move west to Colorado where I worked at Made Boulder for five years. There, I ran the day-to-day business for Lyft, Under Armour, PEARL iZUMi, Clayton Homes, Pinnacle Foods & OLLY. My favorite part, “stealing share from Uber, making manufactured homes something to be proud of & celebrating the collective good that comes from riding bikes.”
I now call Denver home where I liv with my daughter and crazy cat Cooper. When I’m not with my family and friends, I’m out being a yoga-posing-mountain-biking-outdoor-loving-slopes-hitting, Coloradan.
Currently, I am running the day-to-day business for Nestle Starbucks at Tracy-Locke. Working on their full channel portfolio. In addition, I have supported past clients: Lagunitas, Chateau St. Michelle, Hewlett-Packard, PepsiCo & Nature Made.
Prior to coming to Tracy-Locke, I started my career working at Leo Burnett Chicago on McDonald's, Procter & Gamble, Kellogg’s and Philip Morris. There I developed a comprehensive background in brand positioning, integrated campaigns, new product launches & multi-tiered agency relationships.
“I was on a call with Kristin when you sent your email over last week and she was like gosh I love how Kelly is just already on it and fully tracking/seeing around corners. Grateful for you.”

“Wanted to say thank you for giving us all the safe space to decompress this week, it’s been a lot to take in while balancing life/work. Just another reason I feel so grateful to have you as a boss, friend and role model in my life. Thanks for being you Kelly. ”
