Kelly Trace

CEO

Kelly grew up in the Orlando area and is part of a family that goes back four generations in the same community that she lives in today. From the beginning, she knew that she wanted to return hometown after graduating from the University of Florida with her bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design to continue that legacy. Kelly kickstarted her career developing brands for world-renowned companies, managed a network of digital billboards in Orlando for Clear Channel Outdoor, ran the non-profit Kissimmee Main Street and then helped the region recruit companies to create new jobs under the Orlando Economic Partnership. After learning from the pros, she launched Reach, which has grown to over 15 employees and over 182 clients since opening. Reach's main clients fall in tourism and hospitality, or community initiatives and non-profits, which is no surprise if you know Kelly and her team. Most of the Reachers also grew up in Orlando, and have a heart for making real impact in the community. In her spare time (like entrepreneurs know what that is anyway), you can find Kelly volunteering in the community with different non-profits or boards.
