Risa McKenzie

Director of Client Engagement

As Director of Client Engagement, I lead our account management team in building meaningful, long-term client partnerships. I focus on deeply understanding client objectives and delivering results that drive business forward. 

With over a decade of cross-disciplinary experience in business development, operations, marketing, and design, I bring a holistic approach to client relationships. I work with the team to translate client goals into actionable strategies, track marketing performance, and provide insights to keep campaigns running at their best.

Communication and authenticity are at the heart of my work. I’m motivated by building deep, trust-based relationships that create genuine client success.

Beyond account management, I’m an entrepreneur who co-owns an award-winning cidery in Philadelphia with my husband—an experience that has sharpened my understanding of business challenges and client perspectives.

I now live in South Jersey, giving my dog plenty of space to explore. I love being outdoors and in the sun as much as possible—running, biking, or on the beach. When it is raining, you might find me reading Murakami, listening to records, or doing crossword puzzles.
