Amanda Ackerman

Brand Client Success Manager

Amanda brings a unique blend of creativity, organization and technical curiosity to the KickCharge Creative team. She began her college career as an elementary education and musical theatre double major, but midway through her studies realized that teaching wasn’t the right long-term fit for her. Determined to challenge herself and build confidence in a new way, she pivoted to computer science, embracing the difficulty and growth that came with it.

After graduating, Amanda started her professional career as a wedding planner, where she found fulfillment in organization, collaboration and helping clients bring deeply meaningful projects to life. While she loved the work, she eventually sought a role that allowed for a better work-life balance and more time with her loved ones.

That desire led her to KickCharge Creative, where she continues to help clients build something important—the brands that support their families and futures—while enjoying a schedule that aligns with her own values. Having grown up drawing and creating, she is inspired by the thoughtful, imaginative concepts produced by the illustration team and loves being part of a creative environment where strategy and artistry intersect.

When Not at Work

When she’s not at work, Amanda is almost always playing video games. Mostly Nintendo titles, with a few Sony favorites mixed in. She also performs in local theater productions and loves any opportunity to sing, drawing on her background as a trained vocalist. In quieter moments, she can be found reading the latest pick for her family book club or planning her next adventure with her fiancé. Having already crossed Japan and Canada off the list, she’s set her sights on Switzerland or Greece next.

Greatest Passion (or Proudest Accomplishment)

Her greatest passions are music and acting. Amanda grew up performing in musical productions, and it has remained one of her greatest joys throughout her life. She loves the creativity and artistry of the process, as well as the ability to tell meaningful stories through performance. The collaborative nature of theater—bringing together many people to create something special—is something she deeply values.
