Description: Learn more about Kristi Koeter, a marketing director, digital content leader and award-winning former journalist based in Austin, Texas.
I am a dynamic marketing leader who spent more than a decade as a journalist, cutting my teeth on news copy desks for the Riverside Press-Enterprise and Contra Costa Times in California, before making my way back home to Texas. I worked my way up as a copy editor at the Austin American-Statesman , ultimately running its news and entertainment sites, Statesman.com and Austin360.com .
I left journalism to lead content marketing strategy for a small but nimble online travel agency called Undercover Tourist . There, I discovered my talent for connecting with audiences through compelling content and killer SEO. My strength is in setting digital strategy and leading process improvements, particularly in e-commerce and B2C environments.
I am now leading marketing strategy for Sulit Press , a boutique book publisher, and working on my most personal project to date , a memoir chronicling my own quest to heal my relationship with food after a lifetime of dieting, restriction, and overexercise. I write the newsletter Almost Sated on Substack and am co-author of Show Your Work: Successful Women Share the Bumpy Roads to Their Biggest Wins .
