Dave Kielmeyer Email Address

Executive Director of Communications and Marketing

Bowling Green State University is a top public university in Ohio and nationwide with quality undergraduate and graduate academic programs that lead to career success.

I'm a communications and marketing leader with proven experience in strategy development, media relations, public relations, social media, internal and executive communications, crisis communications, branding and advertising. I have a passion for problem solving and I am not afraid of experimenting to find solutions. I advocate for data-driven strategies with measurable results. I thrive in a fast-paced environment and I am at my best under pressure. I build strong teams by hiring smart people, supporting them, helping them develop, holding them accountable, and knowing when to get out of their way. As the Chief Marketing and Communications Officer for Bowling Green State University, I led the university's branding, marketing and public relations strategies. Before assuming that role I served as the University’s Senior Director of Communications, with responsibility for public relations, internal communications and crisis communications. Prior to joining BGSU, I was vice president of account services for FLS Marketing, a Toledo marketing and public relations firm, where I provided counsel on branding, advertising, marketing, and public relations to a broad range of corporate, nonprofit and civic clients.
