About Christian Palmer

My career started in college when I launched ScoopU, a free transportation service for students funded entirely by on-vehicle advertising. After college, I pivoted to a marketing and creative staffing start-up where I helped scale the business as its first hire in that department.That experience led me to marketing / creative consulting, where I worked with brands to solve complex challenges and hit aggressive growth goals.Today, I bring all of that to KAL, where I lead the growth function; helping our partners through smart marketing strategy and intentional creative delivery.
