ABOUT NORA KATE KEEFE

I\'m a strategic communicator and event producer with over a decade of experience leading high-stakes campaigns, large-scale productions, and message-driven moments across politics, government, and advocacy.I’ve built my career around creating experiences that feel as intentional as they are impactful—where message, medium, and people align seamlessly. I’ve led communications strategy and media operations at the national level, including as Director of Surrogate Communications for the 2024 Democratic National Convention, where my team placed 1,500+ interviews and helped launch a first-of-its-kind in-house broadcast studio and creator program. I also served as Trip Director on Elizabeth Warren’s presidential campaign, producing hundreds of events across 30 states and managing a 35+ person advance team.My approach blends logistical precision with gut instinct. I believe the best events aren’t formulaic; they have chemistry. That magic happens when storytelling and strategy come together in the right environment—and I know how to build toward that moment. Whether managing media under pressure or bringing an event to life from the ground up, I lead with clarity, collaboration, and an unshakable sense of purpose.Based in Chicago, originally from Worcester, Massachusetts. Always interested in new connections and opportunities to create work that resonates.
