Wichita Marketing Awards

As the Marketing & Communications Director for the Wichita Regional Chamber of Commerce, Courtney Sendall works daily on projects that require advanced marketing, communication and public relations skills.

Kaylan focuses primarily on storytelling about Koch companies through digital channel-centric content. Specifically, content served on Koch’s websites, newsroom and social media channels. What and whose stories aren’t being told at Koch? She and her team are driven to tell those stories in relevant, visual, compelling ways each day. She’s constantly on the hunt for new content ideas and focused on sharing them in audience-centric ways — continuously experimenting, testing and learning. 

In her free time, Kaylan enjoys spending time with her husband, baby girl and two dogs. In between naps and diaper changes, they’re often cheering on the Jayhawks, checking out restaurants around Wichita, supporting Ballet Wichita or catching up on the latest Netflix binge.
