Stealth Creative

Meet Mark Boyd, Stealth Creative’s new Senior Social Media Manager.
Mark brings 12 years of experience across marketing and digital content, including 10 years in media. Throughout his career, he has supported more than 40 brands and contributed to over 100 campaign activations.

At Stealth, Mark leads social media strategy, content planning and campaign ex*****on across client accounts. He also collaborates with our account service, creative, media and digital teams to ensure social supports each client’s broader marketing and business goals.

Beyond the office, Mark serves on the board of 314 Digital, a St. Louis nonprofit focused on digital marketing education and professional connections.

Welcome to Stealth Creative, Mark! We’re excited to have his strategic thinking, client-focused approach and passion for storytelling on our team.

Let’s keep the welcomes going! Meet Kathy Cunningham, Stealth Creative’s newest media buying expert.

With experience spanning TV, radio, cable, print, out-of-home and digital media, Kathy has planned, negotiated, executed and optimized campaigns across multiple markets. She’s passionate about finding efficiencies, building strong partnerships and delivering meaningful results for clients.

One of the most important lessons she’s learned throughout her career?

“Successful media buying is about much more than numbers. It’s about strategy, relationships and knowing how to make every dollar work harder.”

Kathy lives in Troy, Illinois, with her husband, Dan; their son, Blake; and their “stinky” fur baby, Freddie. Their daughters, Brooke and Blair, are currently attending college.

Welcome to Stealth Creative, Kathy! We’re excited to see the impact you’ll make on our team and clients.

Great ideas happen at the intersection of people, strategy, and community.

Our leadership and creative teams recently traveled to Alabama to support Dragonfly Internet’s inaugural Intersections Business Summit. The one-day event brought together local entrepreneurs, experts and community leaders to explore practical solutions to strengthen their businesses.

Sessions covered marketing best practices, the economic outlook for Alabama’s small-business community, and more. Our leaders put our value of sharing what we know into action, contributing practical experience and insights to a panel on integrating AI into business workflows.

We’re proud to support Dragonfly Internet in bringing its vision for this impactful event to life, and we’re already planning on how to make next year’s Intersection Business Conference even better!

We have new faces across our offices! Meet Kyle Hicks, our newest Stealther and Sr. Account Executive in Joplin.

A Joplin-area native, Kyle brings more than 15 years of experience in sales, marketing, and leadership. His passion for working with people and solving creative challenges drew him to Stealth Creative, and we think he’ll build strong client relationships and help businesses discover new opportunities for growth.

Outside the office, Kyle enjoys spending time with his wife and three children and supporting the veteran community. For the past eight years, he has served as Treasurer on the Board of Charlie 22 Outdoors, a nonprofit supporting veterans and their families. When Kyle isn’t working, serving his community, or spending time with his family, there’s a good chance he’s still thinking about marketing.

We think that means he landed in the right place. Welcome to Stealth Creative, Kyle! We’re excited to have you on the team.

Supporting organizations that do meaningful work is at the heart of what we do.
Our team spent the weekend in Jefferson City supporting Missouri Association of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons - MAOPS during its Annual Meeting—capturing celebrations, interviewing members, and presenting to the Board of Trustees about how Stealth Creative is helping advance the organization’s goals.

We’re proud to work alongside our clients as an extension of their teams, helping bring their stories to life and move their missions forward!

One of our favorite places to be: on set. 🎬

We’re taking you behind the scnes of our recent content shoot with Goop Hand Cleaner to give you a glimpse of what happens before the final photos and videos make it to your feed.

This is the part you don’t always see, but it’s where the magic happens! Every shot, adjustment and creative decision helps turn a strategy into content we’re excited to share with you.

Good mornings start with good people. ☕️

This morning, Sam, Cameo, Kaylea, Darin and Alaina kicked off the day at the Good Morning Joplin Chamber Breakfast.

One of the best parts of mornings like this is catching up with familiar faces, meeting a few new ones and seeing just how many people are invested in making Joplin a great place to live, work and do business.

It's a great reminder of how connected this community really is.

📸 Pictured with Alaina in the second photo (from left to right) are Lacie Waggoner, Lori Jones, Amanda Stone and Gina Langston.

Thanks to the Joplin Area Chamber of Commerce for another great morning!

We’re honored to have attended yesterday’s ribbon cutting and dedication of Sidney R. Baer, Jr. Place, Independence Center’s new affordable and supportive housing option for members aged 55+.

Having partnered with Independence Center St. Louis for several years, it’s been meaningful to witness the impact they continue to make throughout our community. We were grateful to help contribute to the event and celebrate this milestone alongside them.

Someone was recently asking our owner, Dan, where our St. Louis office was located.

When he pulled it up on Google Street View, they were both greeted with a fun surprise.

Not only did they find the office, they also spotted Dan in the middle of his undefeated daily routine: opening the office for the day!

Let’s just say the search results were more thorough than anticipated.
