Some stories are meant to sell. Others are meant to stay.
We build both. Strategy-first, human always.
Baby Bird Communications
Where business strategy and creative instinct share the same nest.
Founded by Brigette O’Donovan and Louise Kelly, we help brands grow not by shouting louder, but by understanding how humans actually think, choose, and fall in love.
Louise Kelly
Louise Kelly is a business strategist with deep experience in real estate development, public affairs, and brand-led growth. Her background spans both public and private sectors. Louise has led strategic marketing programs for national historic districts, served as a government and public affairs strategist for entertainment districts, and overseen large-scale, nationally recognized events while navigating regulation, stakeholders, and public perception.
In her years as a SVP in commercial real estate, she led all aspects of real estate and business development across complex portfolios, always with keen vision for what consumers demand. She managed 12 major projects over 16 years, including the $95 million nationally recognized Andaz Hotel (opened as the Ivy Hotel) in San Diego.
Today, as Managing Partner, she brings that same rigor to brand development and creative strategy, leading a full-service agency with in-house video, design, and production capabilities. Her methods are grounded in business reality, informed by culture, and built to last.
Brigette O’Donovan
Brigette O’Donovan is a marketing strategist and co-founder of Baby Bird Communications, bringing more than two decades of experience at the intersection of business strategy, consumer behavior, and brand storytelling.
She began her career in market intelligence at AMR Research, where she sold enterprise-level market analytics and learned how data, when properly interpreted, shapes smarter business decisions. That foundation in research and analysis continues to inform her work today, grounding creative strategy in real insight rather than instinct alone.
Brigette went on to run and scale two multi-million-dollar marketing agencies in Los Angeles and Orange County, specializing in luxury, hospitality, and real estate. In those roles, she led teams, built long-term client partnerships, and oversaw integrated campaigns for high-value assets where brand perception directly impacted revenue, valuation, and growth.
Today, her work blends that analytical rigor with a deeply human approach to marketing. Her philosophy is simple: the strongest brands are built where strategy meets empathy, and where data and creativity are treated as equal partners.
our team
Our nest is built from strategy, storytelling, and psychology
Built designers, coders, copywriters, and social media minds who know how to turn insight into influence.
People don’t buy products; they buy solutions.
Most companies hire strategists to think and creatives to feel.
We prefer to do both, simultaneously, and often over strong coffee.
