KEEYA-LEE AYRE

Hello!

I'm Keeya-Lee Ayre, a storyteller, globalist, home chef, mama, wife, daughter and friend.
I’m a proudly Australian and Black American, biracial, dual national woman (she/her/hers). Born in St Louis, Missouri in the United States, and raised in Western Australia on Noongar Boodjar. I now live in Atlanta, Georgia with my husband, son, and two cats.

I am the Head of Communications & Influence at BFA Global, a consulting firm that applies financial and digital innovation, venture building, and investment expertise to improve the resilience and wellbeing of underserved people.
​
In my role, I lead the comms team across the organization at large, including vision, strategy, content development, digital, press and media outreach. I also work with early-stage companies in emerging markets through the Catalyst Fund Startup Accelerator, helping entrepreneurs to tell their stories and connect with their audiences.

Previously I led global communications and marketing for GSMA Mobile for Humanitarian Innovation, a 20+ million USD program funded by the UK government to accelerate the impact and delivery of digital humanitarian assistance.

At a local level, I'm a current Fellow of the Georgia Women's Policy Institute, in the reproductive justice cohort. I'm also a part-time candidate in the University of Georgia's Master of Public Administration program, focusing on public policy.
