@kristincelestino
I lead strategic operations and executive communications for complex financial-services initiatives.
What I'm looking for
At Oak Hill Advisors, I translate senior-leadership priorities into clear communications, executable workstreams, and consistent cross-functional follow-through. I currently lead high-priority initiatives, including the firm’s largest brand modernization effort across its website, pitchbooks, visual identity, governance, and co-branding.
I’ve built scalable workflows, templates, approval paths, and reporting standards that strengthen accountability and speed to market. My work spans executive messaging, leadership materials, investor communications, thought leadership, digital programs, events, vendor coordination, budgets, and sensitive organizational narratives.
Across Oak Hill Advisors, NexPoint, Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, and Morgan Stanley, I’ve led complex programs, launched products, supported client and investor relationships, and managed significant event portfolios. I bring structure to ambiguous work, synthesize competing priorities, and help leaders make informed decisions.
