Prior to starting her marketing and communications company two and a half years ago, Wray was vice president of marketing for the High Point Market Authority. Formerly vice president of marketing for the Connie Post Cos., she won an AHFA Home Award for journalism for her work as a contributing editor of BDO Seidman's "Furniture Insights." She began her home furnishings career more than two decades ago as a reporter at HFD and High Points magazines. Wray is the co-founder of and an ambassador for WithIt.  

"What excites me most about bringing in Kimberley Wray as a partner to help us change this industry for the better, is that she is simply the best storyteller I have ever met," said Andy Bernstein, founder and chief executive officer of FurnitureDealer.Net.  "I was lucky enough to hire her as a public relations consultant on a project basis last year and got to experience firsthand what a talented communicator she really is. She has a unique ability to distill complex concepts and repackage them in a way that everyone understands. She is passionate about our industry and the people in it, and her network is unparalleled." 

Bernstein said Web sites need great content. "Kimberley brings us the ability to redefine great content in ways that truly matter for retailers, manufacturers and consumers," he said.
