Founder & President

- Years in Industry: 31

- Interests: kayaking, Savannah Bananas baseball, mycology and herbal remedies
- Most likely to speak hard truths that everyone’s thinking (but no one is saying)
Kerri founded Depth in 2006, bringing together a career-long passion for housing finance with a desire to nurture the innovators at the bleeding edge of the mortgage industry’s digital transformation. In building her own firm, Kerri leaned on the consultative public relations and marketing expertise she had honed during her years at top global agencies — but she also rejected the notion that Depth had to do things “the way they’ve always been done.”
Prior to founding Depth, Kerri led a varied career spanning executive and senior management positions at four leading PR firms; marketing roles at global business consulting firm KPMG and a pioneering tech corporation; and a three-year term as public affairs manager for the Georgia Housing and Finance Authority. She even once served as editor of a B2B trade magazine in the finance and investments space.
Depth’s clients can count on Kerri to pull no punches as she delivers shrewd, timely advice that elevates business strategies and positions clients as meaningful contributors of mortgage industry thought leadership.
She is a recipient of HousingWire’s Marketing Leaders award as well as NEXT’s Powerhouse Award recognizing the most influential women leaders in the mortgage industry. As an annual sponsor of the #HousingDC conference, Kerri has the honor of presenting the annual Housing Champion Award on behalf of Housing Finance Strategies.
A Georgia native, Kerri divides her time between her home in Decatur and her condo on the coastal marsh outside of Savannah.
