Hi, I’m Kelly, a creative partnerships, marketing and biz dev strategy pro with 15+ years of experience turning wild ideas into reality—and a healthy interest in how AI-enhanced strategies and execution can support the under-resourced, the time-strapped, and the first-time founder.
From raising $10M+ in emergency funding during Covid-19 to designing arts districts and corporate philanthropy programs, and helping international businesses find their way into the US market, I’ve built a career out of connecting people, projects, and opportunities in unexpected ways.
I founded Southpaw Lab to help entrepreneurs and organizations do the same—clarify their vision, craft strategies that stick, and make ambitious ideas happen.
As a bonus, I'm having the. best. time. creating and launching original project ideas, too.
