Sheryl Kelley, General Manager & Chief Culture Officer

Culture is created and maintained by communication, and effective communication begins with research. Most often, the best stories intersect and reflect culture—the place where impact happens—and most all of our clients’ moving stories begin with good questions. Sheryl Kelley leads our research efforts, uncovering angles, vistas and points of view for our projects—groundwork tilled, nurtured and harvested into stories that inform, educate and delight our clients’ audiences. An International Affairs and French major at Texas Christian University, Sheryl also manages our books and keeps Chris and Mac humble as first-draft reviewer.
