Anna Kate Carter

Brand Project Manager

Great ideas are the easy part. Turning them into something real, on time, and on brand is where most projects either rise or fall. Anna Kate Carter is one of the reasons ours rise. As Brand Project Manager at BREAD, she supports each brand engagement from first brainstorm to final launch, partnering closely with our Brand Account Director to keep every detail organized, every timeline honest, and every collaborator connected.

Anna Kate’s path into this work began at Mississippi State, leaving there with a B.A. in Communications (Public Relations emphasis) and a love of the field’s most underrated quality: it requires people to actually work together. Before joining BREAD, she developed expertise across brand, advertising, and television, coordinating broadcast and digital campaigns, managing media-buying logistics, analyzing performance, and presenting results to clients. Over time, her role expanded into campaign planning and team coordination, which is the operational territory she now runs at BREAD.

A Tupelo native who now calls Hattiesburg home, Anna Kate brings a systems-minded approach that creates room for creativity rather than constraining it. She has an eye for the details that matter and a knack for building the structure where good ideas can grow. When she’s not in the office, she’s usually with family, staying active, or heading back north to the farm she grew up on—a fact she swears surprises people.
