Our Story

At the intersection of hospitality roots, nonprofit precision, and digital connection.

Lucky Seventeen Collective is a full-service experiential marketing, PR, and social agency connecting local businesses with the community’s dedicated digital storytellers.

Founder Briona “Bri” Jenkins brings a uniquely complete perspective to modern marketing. With a background that spans every role in hospitality—front and back of house—plus 15+ years in nonprofit fundraising strategy, event logistics, and media relations, Bri knows how to build real community. Having spent eight years in Austin, Texas as an entrepreneur, speaker, creator, and podcast host before returning home to Connecticut, Bri saw a major opportunity: a thriving local creator scene, but a distinct lack of structure connecting those storytellers to local businesses.

Lucky Seventeen Collective was created to bridge that gap. We offer an end-to-end strategy that combines in-house content creation and PR with cultivated creator partnerships.

The name Lucky Seventeen honors the lucky number shared between Bri and her partner—a symbol of trust, deep connection, and luck that we bring into every client partnership.
