## Leaders
- [Jonathan Gurwitz](https://kharvey.co/leaders/jonathan-gurwitz/): Jonathan fostered a network of business and political connections most people would die for while he was a columnist and member of the Editorial Board at the San Antonio Express-News. Originally, he was on a path toward a career in Foreign Service, which helps explain his unwavering tact and insatiable interest in politics. In his spare time, he’s an avid fisherman. Fortunately, he’s generous as well – sharing his catches with K Harvey crew on a regular basis.
- [Elizabeth Marshall Black](https://kharvey.co/leaders/elizabeth-marshall-black/): Elizabeth thinks big, but knows the devil is in the details. That combo means she’s the one you want in your corner, working to secure that big story, mitigate a big situation or trumpet a big idea. Her magic touch includes directing efforts in Houston, where her big-agency experience and in-house Fortune-200 experience provide a definite advantage. Outside the office, though, her behind-the-scenes approach vanishes as she takes center stage, appearing as an actress in major productions all over Houston. And yes, she can quote Shakespeare but promises not to.
- [KATIE G. HARVEY](https://kharvey.co/leaders/katie-g-harvey/): Katie founded KGBTexas when she was just 24 and had one confident client. Today, her agency’s San Antonio and Houston offices are filled with top pros and promising younger talent, and the agency has a client list that includes some of the most prestigious companies in America. Katie’s won numerous awards, but she’s a little shy about that. However, she’s proud to share her love of horses, Arabians to be specific. She grew up with them and is a dedicated, competitive rider. Katie’s other great loves are her husband and two sons.
- [RON LANDRETH](https://kharvey.co/leaders/ron-landreth/): Ron possesses a dry wit and a rare combination of art director and writer talents. He’s produced national work for everyone from blue chip companies like General Mills to local nonprofits and small businesses. More than 25 years of experience help him identify opportunities where it seems like there are none and create meaningful work. With all of this, Ron still has a dark side, but only when he’s volunteering as a stormtrooper at charity events.

## Services
- [BRAND DESIGN](https://kharvey.co/services/brand-design-services/): Whether introducing a newborn brand into the world, or whipping a lagging one into shape, there’s no bigger thrill than breathing life into an entrepreneurial idea. Our brand champions embrace challenges, hate mediocrity and love seeing their work make new fans for our clients. That’s why clients trust us with branding their once-in-a-lifetime projects, like the City of San Antonio’s 300th birthday celebration and the launch of Express Access from the Express-News. Our approach goes beyond visual design to create a full identity with personality, voice, values and vision. Winning loyalty is harder than ever, but people still connect with compelling brand stories that feel human and authentic. This is what turns a fleeting moment of recognition into a lasting relationship with your audiences.
- [PUBLIC RELATIONS](https://kharvey.co/services/public_relations/): K Harvey was born as a boutique public relations agency, not exactly what Katie envisioned when she graduated with a degree in marketing. But she found opportunity in PR and enjoyed the challenge of mastering a form of communication she knew could deliver messages to a specific audience in ways no advertising ever could. The rest, as they say, is history.
- [ADVERTISING](https://kharvey.co/services/advertising-services/): Most advertising and marketing agencies say they put ideas first, but there’s a first step before that first spark. Our attention-grabbing ideas start with solid direction. Creatives, planners and account execs work together to get the strategy right, so all the rest flows easily. Not that it doesn’t take effort to flow. We sweat the details, be it branding from scratch or launching a multifaceted marketing campaign for a long-time client. It puts a polish on what we create that only comes from decades of doing. With more than 150 years of combined experience, our team of writers and art directors punch above their weight. They are experts at knocking out social media campaigns, digital video, web design, print advertising and collateral, out-of-home and broadcast content – pretty much anything needed to move the needle.
- [PUBLIC AFFAIRS](https://kharvey.co/services/public-affairs-services/): The same level of trust we’ve built with corporate clients has earned us a reputation as the go-to team for public affairs projects that demand smart, strategic and effective communications. Projects that catch the public eye – and its scrutiny – often put reputations, business development and community growth on the line.

## Work
- [Condor Airlines](https://kharvey.co/work/condor-airlines/): On May 17, 2024, the region’s first commercial transatlantic nonstop flight left San Antonio to Frankfurt, Germany on Condor Airlines.
- [HOLT](https://kharvey.co/work/holt-cat/): Our client, HOLT CAT, a leader in heavy equipment and the nation’s largest Cat dealer, employs more than 2,000 technicians that rebuild, service, and repair various heavy machinery throughout Texas.
- [Greater:SATX](https://kharvey.co/work/greatersatx/): In the Greater San Antonio region, you get more out of the work you put in. Here, you can reach your personal and professional goals more expeditiously through educational programs, industry diversity, lower cost of living and short commutes. With greater:SATX’s intention of highlighting what makes San Antonio so special, the Life Works GreaterSMcampaign was born. The greater:SATX Regional Economic Partnership is the leading organization bringing businesses and jobs into our South Central Texas region. Their mission is to grow, attract, and retain jobs by amplifying what makes this area so special.
- [San Antonio International Airport](https://kharvey.co/work/san-antonio-international-airport-pr/): San Antonio International Airport (SAT) continues to be a key economic driver for the San Antonio region. With recent air service improvements, increases in passenger traffic, and the announcement of the development of a new terminal, K Harvey had a unique opportunity to take advantage of positive momentum and redefine SAT’s brand, positioning the airport as a regional leader and global brand.
- [San Antonio International Airport](https://kharvey.co/work/san-antonio-international-airport/): With a record-breaking number of passengers in 2023, a growing roster of nonstop destinations (including the region’s first nonstop transatlantic flight), and plans for a new terminal underway, San Antonio International Airport was due for a rebrand that would reflect its elevated travel experience.
- [Goodwill](https://kharvey.co/work/goodwill/): Since 1945, Goodwill San Antonio has helped individuals in the community overcome barriers to employment and achieve their full potential. The organization is dedicated to changing lives through the power of work by providing job training and business solutions services. Despite these important services, these offerings are not as well-known as Goodwill’s retail services.
- [Morgan’s](https://kharvey.co/work/morgans-wonderland-rebrand/): Known in the community primarily for Morgan's Wonderland theme park, Morgan's Inclusion Initiative (MII) aimed to undergo a comprehensive rebranding to align with its growth and expanding services. K Harvey evolved Morgan’s name and iconic butterfly visual to symbolize the umbrella organization, providing a cohesive identity. The rebrand achieved success by creating a brand architecture consistent in look, tone, and feel, reinforcing Morgan’s core values of inclusion.
- [Brooks](https://kharvey.co/work/brooks-project-san-antonio-public-relations/): In March 2023, spring break was around the corner and Brooks wanted to be recognized as a place to stay for locals and tourists. Our PR team crafted a compelling Staycation pitch to highlight Brooks' hidden gems, including 1917 Restaurant and eEorea Spa at Embassy Suites. Through strategic media outreach, we teamed up with KSAT 12’s Daytime Show SA Live to showcase the best of Brooks in a captivating feature - from an exciting cooking segment with the head Chef to a relaxing tour of the only Salt Cave in San Antonio.
- [Carl’s Jr.](https://kharvey.co/work/carls-jr-project/): When Carl's Jr. first approached us, their marketing goals were clear. They wanted to celebrate their Latino culture and relaunch their Latino Facebook Page. They also wanted to introduce some seasoned Hispanic employees into their communications, highlighting the company's impact on their lives, families, and communities. Carl’s Jr. didn’t want to just communicate with their Latino audiences and employees – they wanted to celebrate their history, culture, achievements, and heritage.
- [Endeavors](https://kharvey.co/work/endeavors-project-san-antonio-advertising/): Endeavors provides life-changing services to individuals, families and Veterans affected by homelessness, disaster, and mental health issues. While Endeavors has successfully grown its services to a national level, brand awareness within its own hometown in San Antonio has struggled. This meant that people in need were missing out on valuable resources that Endeavors could provide, so we were eager to step in and help.
- [Express Access](https://kharvey.co/work/express-access-project-brand-design/): Visual identity for a news service that provides subscribers with exclusive content, special event access and benefits to help local business.
- [Vista Ridge Pipeline](https://kharvey.co/work/vista-ridge-pipeline-project-san-antonio-brand-design/): That was a legitimate concern once the state regulated use of the Edwards Aquifer, San Antonio’s only source of drinking water. To ensure the proverbial well didn’t run dry, we were tapped to help filter the controversy from the city’s most viable opportunity for an additional water supply.
- [Baylor St Luke’s](https://kharvey.co/work/baylor-st-lukes-project-houston-public-relations/): Texas has the largest medical center in the world, home to an elite group of world-class health care providers in Houston and throughout the region. In a place where excellence is commonplace, it’s the insight of an organization’s leadership that makes a difference. And it was the pandemic that shone a light on CHI St. Luke’s Health.
- [AW Texas](https://kharvey.co/work/aw-texas-project-texas-public-relations/): In 2019, the city of Cibolo approved incentives for Japan-based manufacturing company Aisin AW – operating as AW Texas, Inc. – to build a $400 million new supplier facility and bring more than 900 jobs to the region. Through our partnership with the San Antonio Economic Development Foundation (SAEDF), we worked with AW Texas, Inc. to announce the facility’s groundbreaking and position the event as a significant economic development milestone for the region and the state of Texas.
- [BUC-EE’S](https://kharvey.co/work/buc-ees-project-houston-public-relations/): It’s true, and Buc-ee’s proved it.
- [VIA – Keep SA Moving](https://kharvey.co/work/via-keep-sa-moving-project-san-antonio-public-affairs/): The anticipated growth in San Antonio is expected to create unimaginable gridlock, and VIA Metropolitan Transit had been preparing for that inevitability, developing a plan that included Advanced Rapid Transit, Mobility on Demand and other services and infrastructure. However, VIA needed additional funding to make it all a reality.
- [Southwest Airlines](https://kharvey.co/work/southwest-airlines-project-houston-public-relations/): Southwest Airlines chose Houston as the market to spread its wings with its first international terminal and chose us to shout the news from the rooftops. Because Southwest invested more than $150 million to build the new terminal, we knew a construction project of this scale was going to kick up more than a little dust. Instead of hiding the work behind bland temporary walls, we used the construction barricades to communicate the benefits of the new terminal to travelers.
- [Tricentennial](https://kharvey.co/work/tricentennial-san-antonio-advertising-brand-design/): To commemorate San Antonio’s once-in-a-lifetime birthday celebration, we created an identity that reflects the city’s three-century history and radiates the promise of its future.
- [Papa Johns – Local Flavor](https://kharvey.co/work/papa-johns-local-flavor-project-san-antonio-advertising/): At KGBTexas, we know San Antonio. We know what gets the city excited and the community’s sometimes-odd sense of humor. Those insights led to creating clever, hyper-local, and engaging social media marketing and influencer outreach strategy.
- [VIA – It’s So Easy](https://kharvey.co/work/via-its-so-easy-project-san-antonio-advertising/): The global COVID pandemic led to a steep drop in ridership for transit authorities around the country. In a matter of days, people retreated from public spaces, only emerging when necessary.
- [Express-News](https://kharvey.co/work/express-news-project-san-antonio-advertising/): For more than a century, the Express-News has been a San Antonio institution, providing news and information to the growing city. When the newspaper created a membership-based, digital-only product with exclusive content beyond the daily subscription that would keep its member-readers “in the know,” the Express-News’s leadership recognized that the product needed a distinct name and brand.
- [Vista Ridge Pipeline](https://kharvey.co/work/vista-ridge-project-san-antonio-public-affairs/): A visual essay of a project that promises a drought-proof secure source of water for the San Antonio area for generations to come.
- [Harris County Flood Control District](https://kharvey.co/work/harris-county-project-houston-public-affairs/): For any organization, effective communication requires the right mix of people, strategies and processes. The stakes were especially high for the Harris County Flood Control District as it found itself more in the public eye than ever.
