About
Hi, I’m Kerry O’Shea Gorgone. By day, I run editorial for Appfire, the largest global provider of award-winning Atlassian apps!
By night (and sometimes day), I’m the showrunner and co-host for the daily video show The Backpack Show with Chris Brogan, and co-creator and co-host of Punch Out With Katie and Kerry, an audio show that explores people’s hobbies, collections, side hustles, and volunteering.
Previously, I worked for MarketingProfs and have addressed audiences at industry conferences including the B2B Marketing Forum, the Social Brand Forum, Vocus Demand Success, and FLBlogCon.
I’ve been featured in media stories on law and marketing—like this NBC Nightly News segment on the legality of live streaming—because I graduated #1 in my class from Suffolk Law.
