Christy Hiler Named One of Ragan’s Top Women in Marketing
Leading the charge. Changing the game.
We’ve always known our CEO, Christy Hiler, is a force in the marketing world. Now it’s official. Ragan—an industry leader in professional development and intelligence for communicators, marketers, and business leaders—has named her one of the Top Women in Marketing, Class of 2025.
Ragan’s annual list celebrates marketing leaders who are reshaping the future of the industry, those advancing bold strategies, delivering transformative campaigns, and championing innovation across every corner of marketing. This year’s honorees represent the best from agencies, brands, nonprofits, and government organizations. All united by a shared belief in the power of storytelling to drive real impact.
Christy embodies that spirit in every sense. As CEO and co-owner of Cornett, she’s led our independent, female-owned agency with purpose and heart, balancing wild creativity with strategic clarity. She’s also the founder of Own It, a movement dedicated to increasing the number of women-owned agencies in advertising, and a tireless advocate for creating space where new leaders can rise and thrive.
We couldn’t be prouder to see her recognized among such a remarkable class of women redefining what marketing leadership looks like.
Congratulations, Christy. Thank you for leading with courage, curiosity, and conviction.
