Kristen Convery

Kristen Convery believes in the power of story. A seasoned marketing and creative leader, she knows that people connect with people, and it’s their stories that bring Ohio State to life.

As Interim Creative Lead and Head of Enterprise Storytelling, Kristen serves as the senior strategist guiding brand-enhancing, audience-centered creative work across the university.

Her journey at Ohio State reflects both ambition and mastery. Kristen has progressed from web editor to director of multimedia content, to senior director of marketing content and now to her current leadership role. Along the way, she has led both strategy and execution, introducing centralized content strategy, building narrative frameworks for university leaders and priorities, and directing large-scale collaborations spanning athletics, research and institutional impact.

With a career that started in journalism, Kristen delivers a sharp editorial lens to marketing, blending creativity with credibility and brand ambition with clarity. That versatility is essential in leading teams of writers, editors, photographers and video producers responsible for bringing Ohio State’s most visible and influential stories to life.

Known for her collaborative style, Kristen is deeply committed to mentorship and team development. Outside of work, she and her husband share a lively blended family that includes their children, a mini-Goldendoodle and, admittedly, far too many plants.
