Throughout her career, Kellie Boyle has had a front row seat to – and played an active role in – some of the country’s most controversial and culture-changing initiatives: in the late 1980’s, with Ogilvy & Mather, she helped to calm a confused and divided populace through the “America Responds to AIDS” campaign. With Stackig Sanderson & White in the 1990's, she helped businesses leverage the Internet and compete in the nascent digital economy. Later, as part of a national advocacy campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, she handled media relations for whistleblower Jeffrey Wigand, who was later played by Russell Crowe in the movie, “The Insider.” Kellie began her career in political communications devising communications strategies; writing speeches, advertising and campaign materials; generating media coverage; and managing conventions for statewide and national candidates, office holders and political parties.Following a decade in politics, she became an independent consultant and partnered with some of DC's top communications firms to provide strategic planning and marketing communications services to Johnson Controls, Price Waterhouse Coopers, American Banking Association, The Conservation Fund, American Red Cross, Veterans Administration, Small Business Administration and numerous other national and regional clients. From 2008-2010, inspired by deep gratitude to America’s military, Kellie took a private sector sabbatical to serve in development for Operation Homefront, a national non-profit that assists the families of wounded and deployed troops. She was called back to active duty in communications counseling in 2010 with the co-founding of Boyle Public Affairs.For the past 12 years, Kellie has built and led teams of experts in creating and executing integrated marketing and advocacy campaigns on behalf of public and private sector, nonprofit and association clients.
