Meet Christopher
An innovator by nature, Christopher Donnelly founded Buddy + Co. to be the resource he saw first-hand that was lacking in the modern business world. Investing over a decade of his career working side by side with game changers, difference makers, and industry icons, Christopher developed a multi-faceted understanding of their needs, complex skillsets, and how tailor-made support could position them to thrive. Helping business owners and entrepreneurs elevate to new heights is Christopher’s deepest passion. Fusing together this passion with a collaborative partnership mentality and intuitive strategy, Buddy + Co. was born.
From working for the likes of Ralph Lauren, Brooks Brothers, Serena & Lily, and ShopStyle, to his current roster of exclusive fashion and home brands, Christopher has developed vast experience spanning e-commerce and brand building. Specializing in online strategy, marketing, product sourcing, and development, Christopher is known for leading brands and their teams into the future through intentional and highly curated support.
