Meet the Curator Team
Founder and Principal
Scott Battishill
With nearly 30 years of high-level PR experience with some of the world’s largest brands and agencies, I have developed a philosophy and approach to building connections with consumers that yield results.
Before creating Curator®, I was the Senior Director of PR for DDB Worldwide. I’ve gained experience on all sides of the PR equation: as a television news journalist, and on the brand side where I served as the International Communications Manager of PR for The Boeing Company over Europe and the Middle East. It’s given me an insight into what matters – how to shape a story.
I don’t believe people wake up in the morning and think about brands. To give a consumer a reason to care about a brand you have to identify the human insight, as subtle as it may be, that connects them. Whether a campaign was being developed in 1923 or today, if we understand human motivations and inherent behaviors, we’ll nail the insight. Then – and not in reverse – can we layer on all the other new cool stuff. It’s with that approach as a foundation to the campaigns we develop that has allowed us to win virtually every award you can win in our industry and build long-standing relationships with our clients that far exceed industry standard.
Senior Vice President
Dan Miller
For almost three decades, I’ve helped clients drive sales, reduce churn, increase engagement, and deepen Brand love using PR, advertising, direct and digital marketing. I have experience in retail, lifestyle, technology, telecom, travel and financial services.
My career began in 1995 at DDB, where I oversaw campaigns for McDonald’s and Microsoft. In 2011, I joined Curator, overseeing the Domino's, Safeco Insurance and Seattle's Best Coffee business. From 2014 to 2019, I ran the T-Mobile business at Wunderman Thompson, before returning to Curator.
I have led work that has won two Cannes Lions, an EFFIE, ECHO, Webby, Clio, Pencil, two PRSA Silver Anvils, 10 PRSA Summit Awards, three PRSA Best of Show titles and a PRSA President’s Award.
I serve on the Board of Directors for Washington’s National Park Fund and as Northwest Regional President of Pi Kappa Alpha, I am also a retired Scoutmaster for the Boy Scouts of America.
Account Supervisor
Jessica Christopher
I’ve always had an affinity towards storytelling. From a young age, I devoured all forms of literature, enamored by the profound effect one story could have on an individual. Later in life, this love of storytelling took form in my career in public relations, where I spend my days crafting and sharing stories for diverse brands. In this role, I pride myself on my ability to effectively execute campaigns that do not simply reach an audience – it impacts them.
Throughout my career, I’ve specialized in a strategic, integrated approach, blending avenues including earned and social media, experiential events, and strategic partnerships to drive my strategy. I have experience working within industries including entertainment, tech, finance, non-profit, retail, construction, and food.
When not at work, you can find me snowboarding, hiking with my dog, dancing at a concert, or curled up with a book and my cat. I am also passionate about driving forward DEI initiatives in and out of the workplace.
Senior Account Executive
Xiamara Garza
One “Intro to PR” course was all it took for me to know that this is what I was meant to do. Since graduating from Northern Arizona University in 2021, I’ve been lucky enough to continue my passion for storytelling, all while staying true to myself, my roots and my values.
As a proud second-generation Latina, I credit my strong foundation to my family, my culture, my mentors and my education, including some of the internships I’ve had along the way (one of which was with Curator). Now, I’m lucky enough to work full-time here alongside dedicated and experienced individuals who share the same values I do: transparency, authenticity, and relationship building.
In my free time, you can usually catch me outdoors with my two dogs soaking up the Arizona sun, trying out new recipes, taking dance classes, planning my next travel adventure, or enjoying the city life by going to new restaurants, bars, and concerts.
Account Executive
Elsa Fletcher
People would often ask what I wanted to be when I grew up. That’s a difficult question to answer at five years old, so I always said, “I just want to be a kid.”
As I got older, I found my passion for creating and connecting with others. It led me to the University of Oregon, where I studied Communication with an emphasis in Advertising and a minor in Business. I discovered how crucial it is to comprehend the market and the factors that impact consumer behavior. However, one of the most important lessons was the value of developing relationships with courage and generosity.
Now, I’m delighted to be working full-time with the dedicated team at Curator.
During my free time I love trying new restaurants, exploring different neighborhoods in Seattle, and painting. I’m always planning my next adventure and constantly look forward to ski season.
Assistant Account Executive
Madeline Geller
As a lifelong equestrian, I learned at an early age the importance of building and maintaining relationships, the foundation of which comes from the stories and experiences shared. From a young age, I aspired for a career in Public Relations, where I could help build lasting connections between brands and consumers.
After receiving a BA in Public Relations and Minor in Sports Business from Central Washington University, I sought an internship with Curator to develop new skills and client experience. This led me to my current role as an Assistant Account Executive, where I work with a range of clients within the lifestyle landscape.
When I am not supporting my clients, you can find me in the kitchen trying a new recipe, exploring bookstores or attending music festivals. Younger me would not believe I landed my dream job where I can continue to creatively share stories that make an infinite public impact.
