Keri Valentic Moore, founder and strategist,  headshot

Her marketing career began at Whole Foods Market, where she spent nearly a decade leading regional marketing, community partnerships, and sustainability initiatives. She went on to work across hospitality, nonprofit, and sustainable transportation organizations, including five years with José Andrés Group.

In 2023, Keri founded KVM Marketing to work directly with restaurants, food and beverage brands, hospitality businesses, and nonprofit organizations. Her experience in both operations and marketing gives her a practical perspective on what it takes to grow a business, connect with guests, and build a strong brand.

KVM is intentionally small, allowing Keri to work closely with clients and become an extension of their teams. Her work spans brand and marketing strategy, restaurant openings, communications, partnerships, events, digital marketing, and ongoing marketing leadership. At the center of it is an understanding that good marketing has to work for the business, not just look good on paper.

Based in Las Vegas, Keri serves on the Culinary Council for Three Square Food Bank and is co-founder of the Judy Jane Foundation, a nonprofit supporting environmental causes, underserved youth, and Alzheimer’s awareness and advocacy. Community and sustainability have been part of her work throughout her career and continue to influence the businesses and organizations she chooses to support.
