If you need advice from anyone at Travers Collins, you best get to Barb Krellner’s desk, right quick. “Be willing to try anything” is the essence of her philosophy about this industry, and after more than 40 years working for agencies, she has undoubtedly lived by that creed. From her first job as a media assistant at Weil, Levy & King to her legendary work as a senior account manager at Travers Collins (with stints as an assistant copywriter, traffic manager and production assistant in between) Barb hasn’t just tried anything. She’s kicked butt at all of it, thanks to an unwaveringly positive attitude, razor sharp wit and microscopic ego. Outside of the office, her favorite thing to do is spend time at her summer cottage, out on the lake with her husband. Our favorite thing about that is when she comes back.
