A new Public Relations firm officially launches today in Indianapolis — Baise Collective, founded by longtime PR expert Kelly Young.
With nearly three decades of experience in agency, corporate, nonprofit and higher education communications, Young has rebranded her former consultancy, Baise Communications, into Baise Collective — a firm that reflects its expanded mission of public relations, leadership development, growth and podcast media.
Young, most recently the Director of Public Relations and Media Spokesperson for AES Indiana, has spent her career helping organizations tell their stories, manage crisis communications, and secure media coverage. A well-known figure in Indianapolis PR circles, she has held leadership roles at Borshoff, Hetrick Communications and CVR and is now bringing her expertise directly to clients.
“I’m thrilled to officially launch Baise Collective today, as it represents the next evolution of my work,” Young said. “Returning to the agency model allows me to collaborate closely with clients to craft meaningful stories, build strong brands and create lasting impact.”
Baise Collective combines the expertise of a full-service firm with the agility and personal attention of a boutique agency. Rooted in nonprofit, corporate and agency communications, Young understands the power of strategic communications. True to its name, Baise Collective is built on collaboration — bringing together a network of trusted partners to form the right team for each client. This flexible, tailored approach allows the firm to move quickly and adapt to client needs, delivering customized campaigns that are both impactful and purpose-driven.
Baise Collective’s Focus Areas:
- PR & Media Strategy – Helping brands secure media coverage, craft compelling messaging, prepare for interviews, and navigate crisis communications. The firm also provides functional PR support for organizations in transition.
- Leadership & Growth – Offering workshops and leadership development programs to help professionals increase visibility, build confidence, and step into leadership roles.
- Podcast Media Group – Producing and amplifying authentic conversations, including Young’s Badassery Life podcast, which highlights bold, fearless women.
As Indianapolis continues to evolve, Baise Collective aims to be a go-to PR partner for businesses, nonprofits and entrepreneurs looking to enhance their visibility. For more information, visit baisecollective.com or contact Kelly Young at kelly@baisecollective.com.
