Kayla Calkins’s Expertise I'm a brand builder and marketing leader with experience at Fortune 50 companies, startups, and nonprofits. Through my background in insurance and financial services and Master's in Public Administration concentrated on climate risk, I have centered my career on breaking down complex topics into strategies that lead to innovations for the greater good. I am particularly energized to focus my expertise on problems related to climate, insurance, and wildfire. As a marketing and communications generalist, my work cuts across brand strategy, digital marketing, and strategic communications. I have excelled in developing and implementing multi-channel marketing strategies that elevated brand presence and accelerated revenue growth. I work closely with product, engineering, customer care, and business development partners to deliver compelling narratives and drive engagement across the customer lifecycle. Content strategy, SEO/SEM, organic and paid social media, digital marketing, public relations, affiliate partnerships, activations, and philanthropic partnerships are all in my wheelhouse. In addition, I'm a qualitative researcher trained in Human-Centered Design and Design Thinking. I apply a deep understanding of market research and analysis, customer insights, and performance measurement. My experiences range from overseeing a department of 30+ team members, including vendor agencies running a 6 million marketing budget, to operating as a team of one at startups with no budget. I have a proven ability to inspire and manage high-performing marketing teams in a collaborative remote environment. My leadership style is relational, building a high degree of trust to nurture an empowered team that is confident working on hard problems. As I focus on climate solutions, I am motivated by the ecology of connection. That is, when we relate to each other and our natural environment, our reciprocal relationship drives our actions—we lead from a place of believing "if you're not okay, I'm not okay." This is where true systems change comes from. This is the future I want to help create.
