“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” – Mahatma Gandhi

Keke joined the Community Foundation in November 2024 and currently serves as the Digital Marketing Associate. She is dedicated to fostering positive change and supporting the community’s growth through her role.

Keke graduated with honors from Eastern Kentucky University in 2016 and Cornell University in 2023, earning a B.S. in Business, Marketing, and Accounting. During her graduation, the COVID-19 pandemic hit, prompting her to pivot into entrepreneurship. She successfully built her own remote digital marketing agency and became a mentor and resource for single mothers in tech, like herself.

Keke believes in the power of community and the importance of giving back. Integrity, empathy, and continuous learning are core values that guide her professional and personal life. Her passion for holistic development drives her to engage with and support various community programs in Kentuckiana.

Keke’s commitment to positively impacting and inspiring others led her to create a running community for families supporting children with Special Education Needs and Disabilities. Building strong relationships and fostering a sense of belonging are important to her.

Outside of work, Keke cherishes spending time with her son, coaching youth sports, and getting lost in a good book.
