Jordan Amaker

Jordan came to be the lead campaign planner, story-wrangler and cheerleader for the local movement in 2015 after spending 7 years in the full-service marketing agency world. Having worked mostly with nonprofit clients in digital marketing and account management roles, she jumped at the chance to put her passion and skill sets to work for Lowcountry Local First — an organization she had followed since moving downtown from Raleigh, North Carolina in 2008. When not touting the local scene, you may find her enjoying time with her daughter, forcing snuggles on her cat, taking nature walks, working in the yard, or listening to her husband perform spoken word. Jordan has also served on the boards of directors for Compass Collegiate Academy, Charleston Moves, and Charleston American Marketing Association, and she chaired the 2013 Susan G. Komen Lowcountry Race for the Cure.

When not working, you'll probably find Jordan dining at Holy City Brewery, shopping at Roadside Blooms and The Station Park Circle, or trying to steal the alpacas from Bee City Zoo.
