ABOUT KATE MEYERS EMERY

My career started in cemeteries (literally) where I learned to pull histories out of bones, databases, and GIS layers. Now I use that same mix of data driven analysis and eye for storytelling to help organizations create content with clarity, creativity, and just a little strategic audacity.At Candid, I lead digital communications across social media, newsletters, web, and executive messaging—turning nuanced information into content that’s accessible, trustworthy, and widely shared. The result: stronger organizational visibility, experimentation that drives results, deeper audience engagement, and messaging that we can use to communicate with clarity and confidence.If your message is complicated, your data is unwieldy, or your story feels impossible to tell, I’m the one you call.
