We create experience | Please help us welcome our Summer Intern Ryan McGown!

“As a graphic design student, I am so excited for the opportunity to contribute my creativity and skills to such an influential and valued Memphis firm. I am inspired by the meaningful work they do like creating designs that amplify the voices of local establishments and foster connections within our community. In a world where visual communication is more vital than ever, I am thankful to be part of a team of passionate individuals who prioritize community, integrity, and impact.”

Ryan is pursuing her graphic design degree from Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) and supporting our creative department this summer.

We create Storytelling | Please help us welcome Elise Higdon McKelvey, Chief Wordsmith at DCA.

Elise was born with a boundless natural curiosity, which, at the age of ten, took the form of a self-published neighborhood read by few and acclaimed by none. She’d glide in her rollerskates door-to-door for such scoops as “Jeannie Crenshaw says there’s a monster in her pool, but it’s really her boyfriend.” She still has a natural curiosity and creative spirit but has honed her writing skills a bit more since then.

With over 25 years of experience in both public and private sectors, Elise brings wordsmithing wisdom and a relationship-driven career to the DCA creative process. From U.S. Senate leadership in the Capitol to arts fundraising and program management on behalf of one of the city’s leading nonprofit funders, Elise carries a deep understanding of persuasive narrative development and organizational leadership.
