“Kelly Sepcic Pfeil is one of the most talented innovators and gifted leaders that I have had the pleasure of working with during my career with PepsiCo. She inspires teams to work collaboratively and brings out their passion for developing new ideas for growth.  In addition to working with Kelly at PepsiCo, I have seen her translate her skills to leading the Board of Directors for The Storehouse.  Like her leadership at PepsiCo, she is making an immediate impact in her role at The Storehouse and has brought a new team of Board members together to set a bold vision for addressing hunger in our community.”

"Dr. Sepcic has brought a wealth of experience to Georgia Tech’s School of Chemistry and Biochemistry, and to our students, by virtue of her service on our Advisory Board and as a mentor to our Women in Chemistry group. She has also co-created a summer course describing the steps necessary to bring scientific discoveries in chemistry to the market. Her enthusiasm, insight, and great success in food and beverage chemistry, flavor biochemistry, manufacturing, and management make her a highly valued partner in our mission to train and inspire new generations of researchers and scientific leaders."

"Kelly brings insight, purpose, discipline and leadership to all her work. She is a curious, creative problem-solver who truly believes in empowering people with insight and know-how. 

In working with Kelly as a leader of R&D innovation at PepsiCo, I witnessed her dedication to cross-disciplinary collaboration in unleashing the ability of people to invent and reinvent. As an educator, I have seen her generously give her wisdom to those who have yet to realize their dreams and potential to make an important contribution. She's a person you can entrust with your quest. She is a joy to work with - she makes the journey fun."
