Wonder Woman in Business, Eleanor Carey

Eleanor Carey

Elea Carey is a native of Memphis, Tennessee, where I was raised in the sixties and seventies by a mom from a migrant working family and a dad who was the descendent of Mississippi's political elite. They offered us a marvelously radical education and rare insights into social justice movements from an early age. My work has always been in how to best communicate and has ranged from writing and editing to large scale communications campaigns. I've also produced vinyl records, counseled incarcerated military troops, and served as the longtime writing coach for an author on Florida's death row. Most of my current work is in supporting public transit in their communications during these challenging pandemic times--I tend to take up causes others might call "lost," and I relish finding opportunity in crisis. I have also worked extensively in a tech startup and venture and early-stage investing, including focusing on out-of-the-box initiatives like Bee Partners' voting rights campaign.
