WE ARE CREATIVES & STRATEGISTS.
WE LOVE WORKING TOGETHER.

We started Braid as creative directors (and sisters!) and have grown into a guiding team of our favorite kind of experts – the kind who get stuff done. We share decades of combined agency experience, and have helped hundreds of creative entrepreneurs and purposeful businesses (our people!) from around the country, along the way.

TARA STREET
BRANDING & MESSAGING

Tara works with our clients to tell their best story and bring in the layers that make it real. When she’s got her writing cap on, the keys are flying (and she actually has a writing cap). Sometimes when Tara shares the brand stories she writes for our clients, they cry. Happy tears.

Favorite Shows:
Parks & Recreation (for fun)
Game of Thrones (after the kids go to bed)

KATHLEEN SHANNON
CREATIVE DIRECTOR & DESIGN

Kathleen is a designer at heart, but her expertise is personal branding + business (because business is personal). Whether creating content or creative directing – every project and conversation Kathleen is part of, inspires our clients to unapologetically “own it.”

Favorite Books:
Daring Greatly by Brené Brown
& ReWork by Jason Fried & David H. Hansson

HOLLY ARTER
MARKETING & MEDIA STRATEGY

Holly reminds our clients (and us!) we are here to grow. Seeing the goals and the ways we can reach people to get there, comes from her focus on creating results and enthusiasm for new marketing trends. Holly also talks with her hands, so whatever she’s sharing is extra punctuated!

Favorite Movies:
Pride & Prejudice (Keira Knightley version)
and anything with Bill Murray!

AMANDA LOWERY

Favorite Pastime:

flavors in life.

LIZ JOHNSON
CREATIVE, COPY & BRAND DESIGN

Liz brings impeccable design and style to every project she touches. Liz is a triple threat, guiding our clients through the Braid Method step-by-step, pulling out the nuances of what they do so their messages feel real. But most of all she designs brands that feel perfectly made-to-fit.

Creative Director at Braid Creative
10+ yrs Agency & Brand experience
Favorite Pastime:
Perfecting her homemade pasta
& ice cream recipes

JENTRY MILLER
DIGITAL & MEDIA STRATEGY

If you like color-coded flowcharts, Jentry’s your gal. But behind the grid, Jentry helps guide some serious media and digital strategy with thoughtful alignment of audience, message and media consumption trends. She’s also pretty serious about a good cheese platter.

Digital Strategist & Account Manager
10+ yrs Agency, Media & Digital Experience
Favorite Time of Year:
Kicking off Christmas the very day after Thanksgiving with a party… & probably a mandatory viewing of the movie Love Actually.

CAROLINE GRICE
MEDIA COORDINATOR

Caroline’s agency experience and sunny personality is a winning combo. And on days when she’s not supporting our Braid media team and clients – you’ll find her supporting her girls at the volleyball court or softball field.

Media Coordinator
5+ years Agency Experience
Favorite Movies:
Pitch Perfect, Lincoln Lawyer, & Sweet Home Alabama

GABBY BRANN
GRAPHIC DESIGNER

Gabby Brann joins our design team as a recent OU grad in visual communications. Gabby loves finding the bridge between form and function – which can be seen in her unexpected love for Formula1 racing.

Graphic designer at Braid Creative
Favorite time of year:
Christmas! I love the cold, the snow, and the kitschy decorations. I once even dressed up as Christmas for Halloween!

PAM GOODNER
ACCOUNTING

Pam is the master of all the numbers (more like master of The Matrix). Once she goes into the system, everything starts clicking. Because organized, well documented & timely execution of all things financial doesn’t just help us sleep better at night… it helps our clients & vendor partners know everything’s taken care of!

Accounting Manager
10+ yrs Agency Financial & Operations Experience
Favorite Pastime:
the most-of-the-year reality is grandkids’ soccer, softball, wrestling, events… but the summer-dreaming is hiking, snorkeling, beaches & travel!

We love blending our own best ingredients, personal and professional, creative and strategic, to make the work we do more inspiring, insightful (and dare we say fun?) for each other and our clients.
