Recognized as one of the "most inspiring women," she blends her expertise with an unstoppable spirit, driving innovative narratives that shine across industries.

Kelly Ann Collins, a communications powerhouse that has masterfully orchestrated narratives for top NGOs, nonprofits and Fortune 500 companies, launched Unstoppable Future as a 501(c)(3) public charity in 2024.

Kelly Ann Collins is a globally recognized communications strategist, digital pioneer, and media entrepreneur named among the Top 100 Most Inspiring Women for her trailblazing work at the intersection of technology, media, and global impact.

An early innovator in digital media, she was one of the first bloggers and part of Google’s initial wave of influencers, helping shape how storytelling evolved online. She began her career as an award-winning journalist, contributing to leading outlets including USA Today, Newsweek, and The Associated Press, along with numerous national and regional publications, television networks, and radio stations.

She later founded Glittarazzi, a digital platform that became the first independent online news organization to earn White House press access. The publication quickly grew to more than 3 million monthly readers, establishing her as a leader in emerging media and digital storytelling.

Kelly Ann’s work spans collaborations with global brands and cultural institutions including Adobe, American Idol, Disney, Red Bull, Starbucks, and The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. She also helped bring the United Nations further into the digital space, developing the strategy behind its SDG Zone and expanding global access to UN programming, events, and dialogue.

In 2020, Twitter selected her to help launch its live events platform, Spaces, where she led influential conversations on Web3 and emerging technology. Recognizing the need for greater representation, she launched SheCrypto in 2021 to create space for women in blockchain. By 2025, SheCrypto had evolved into a podcast, newsletter, and media platform that, through Unstoppable Future, has helped more than 1,600 women attend blockchain and technology events through scholarships and sponsored access.

Through Unstoppable Future, Kelly Ann has also worked alongside more than 140 former USAID professionals within the World Institute for Conservation and Environment (WICE) to launch global initiatives including the Blue Impact Fund and Blue Impact Week. In collaboration with organizations such as E1, XPRIZE, CORDAP, the Benioff Ocean Science Laboratory, MSC Foundation, Florida International University, and partners across sport, science, and culture, these initiatives bring together innovation, sustainability, and community action to advance ocean health and the blue economy.

Anchored by the E1 Miami GP – the season finale of the 2025 UIM E1 World Championship presented by PIF – Blue Impact Week united leaders across technology, sport, and science to drive solutions for coral restoration and coastal resilience, reflecting Kelly Ann’s ongoing commitment to building platforms that connect ideas, people, and impact on a global scale.

Her work has involved three White House administrations. Her accolades include recognition from The White House for pandemic-related communication initiatives and a spot among Inc. Magazine's top 100 female business leaders.

In 2015, she co-founded Kittr, a social media-AI tool that partnered with Wix, and, in 2017, played a role in launching WaveAI in Silicon Valley.

In 2021, she launched an program with Unblocked – which was funded by Jay-Z’s firm, Marcy Ventures, Tiger Global, Shawn Mendes, and Oaktree Capital Management – to help amplify women in Web3. Now, what started as that program is now Unstoppable’s Women In Blockchain Fund, which powers SheCrypto. Kelly Ann also launched a media company that was the first-ever metaverse-based news company (Into The Meta).

Some other career highlights include driving social media for a Cannes Golden Lion-winning campaign and working with The Elders on a social media campaign to help with women’s empowerment under Peter Gabriel’s direction. She’s also ghostwritten for A-list celebrities and top CEOs, and worked with American Idol and Ryan Seacrest.

Kelly Ann also launched multiple brands for AOL Co-founder Steve Case’s Revolution.

Additionally, she was named a United Nations’ World Food Program USA Ambassador for Good – as well as a “kickass” woman in Web3.

Kelly Ann is not merely a communications expert – she is a dynamic force reshaping innovative landscapes.

Her educational background includes programs at MIT, Cornell and WVU, and experiences at Google and YCombinator. She has mentored students, entrepreneurs and Fortune 500 employees – at Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center, AOL, The George Washington University School of Business, and for orgs, like Amazon Web Services.
