Renee Collie

Renee Collie has worked in the marketing agency space for 17 years since completing grad school in 2009. She runs an agency where she serves as a fractional CMO or CSO for multiple clients across for-profit and nonprofit sectors. Her work focuses on helping businesses grow through marketing, business consulting, and strategy, with a particular emphasis on guiding owners to tell their stories in ways that highlight transformations rather than processes. One of her key clients is Children of Grace, a nonprofit in Uganda supporting orphans and vulnerable children, where she serves on the executive team. Collie is also actively involved in service organizations in the Nashville area and attributes her professional success to the leaders, mentors, and coaches who encouraged innovation and persistence, as well as her Christian faith. She values people above performance or titles, prioritizes excellence and creativity, and advises young women entering the field to seek healthy mentors and invest in personal development through coaching or therapy.
