Hello!

I'm Aceel Kibbi, a content & marketing strategist and award-winning podcast producer based in NYC.

My work lives at the intersection of story, culture, and strategy. I tend to follow my curiosity wherever it leads. I’ve launched podcasts for A-list talent and global brands, scaled digital platforms from beta to buzz, and led global creative teams across time zones and formats.

  • Currently, I serve as Head of Strategy at Wonder Media Network (acquired by Acast), where I lead branded podcasts, marketing campaigns and direct a video team to deliver high-impact social media assets for cross-platform engagement.

  • Before that, I joined an Estonian AI startup as Head of Content, shaping the voice of a new platform and building content that surpassed 150K views in its first month.

  • I’ve produced top-charting podcast series with Wondery, managed multimodal narratives at Dear Media, and reported from the field across the US and Canada.

  • I’ve also:

    • Helped launch the first English digital magazine in the Middle East.

    • Moved to Salzburg to work with an Austrian nonprofit (and yes, partially for the Sound of Music vibes).

    • Reported breaking news in scrappy Boston newsrooms.

    • Worked on daily NPR radio programs.

    • Worn more hats than a costume closet.

What ties it all together? I’m a nimble, versatile storyteller who creates the type of work that sparks reflection, builds connection, and shifts perspective. I’m especially energized by stories that center diverse lived experiences and push creative boundaries—whether through sound, image, or interaction.

If you’re looking for someone who can see the big picture, lead with heart, and execute with precision, let’s talk.
