CEO & Digital Fundraising Expert
Jackson McMillan
After years of organizing rapidly growing organizations and political campaigns, Jackson realized the need for accessible and affordable media and advertising resources for growing businesses, campaigns, and non-profits. So often, these organizations do incredible work, but struggle to scale because no one knows about that great work they do. He's a huge nerd, and a regular in local gaming stores. Jackson can often be found reporting on Florida Politics
on Tiktok @jacksonoffl.
COO & Compliance Expert
Ryan Eliason
Originally majoring in psychology, Ryan found a knack in college for advertising, media design, and growth driven leadership strategies. Now, he works with Key Lime Strategies to build brands that impress, and grow on online platforms in the most effective and affordable manner. Ryan is a proud gamer, and can often be found at the Dungeons and Dragons table.
Lead Designer and Digital Specialist
Izaiah Rines
Izaiah has spent the last four years working in local politics, particularly in Pinellas and Manatee county. An artist at heart, he found a way to combine his love for writing and design with his natural drive for change. At Key Lime, Izaiah specializes in online and print graphics, website building, and fundraising copy. In his spare time, he can be found frequenting local coffee shops in St. Petersburg hunting for the best dirty chai latte or playing with his cat, Poppy.
Fundraising Associate
Izzy Connerly
Izzy swapped the mountains of New Mexico for Florida’s beaches, earning a dual degree in Political Science and Communications along the way. A longtime graphic design hobbyist, she turned her passion into a career, working with local political organizations in St. Petersburg. Now at Key Lime Strategies, Izzy spends her days creating impactful designs, editing videos, and writing fundraising copy that gets results. When she’s not busy with creative projects, she enjoys dabbling in calisthenics strength training, surfing around on Reddit, and, yes, the occasional romantic walk on the beach—because Florida life practically demands it.
