She was one of our first employees, working across nearly every aspect of our marketing efforts, and spearheaded several initiatives throughout her tenure such as our website build (strategy, content, product), SEO and content strategy, and user experience for our demand-generating client lead program. Our website these days has over 200k organic views, and our client lead program generates in excess of $1m monthly bookings for our community. Kelley is a kind person, a versatile leader, and a great asset for any company."

Her systems became the backbone of how we manage newsletters, social media, guest communications, and itineraries. Kelley is steadfast, focused, and agile. She’s clear in her objectives, transparent in her feedback, and quick to adapt when priorities shift. When the opportunity came to bring her onto the team, I didn’t hesitate, and I’d make that decision again without question."
