Stacy has spent more than twenty years working out what a brand is actually for — first inside agencies, then on the client side, and now as half of hi!.
She started in agency strategy at BKV. She moved client-side and kept going: executive consultant to Meta's Supplier Diversity organization, where she built the brand and marketing playbook the team ran on. Brand modernization for ON Partners, a retained executive search firm. Senior Marketing Director at the Georgia Festival of Trees, where she delivered a 31% revenue increase and the highest-grossing year in the event's history.
Then she built one from nothing. Hose Water Supply Co. went from concept to launched e-commerce brand in four months — her own positioning, her own product, her own storefront.
At hi! she owns strategy, positioning, business architecture, and client leadership. In practice that means she is the person who gets a business to stop guessing what it sounds like.
