Christy Hritz, Founder
Senior marketing leadership for organizations that need structure, strategy, and someone who stays close to the work.
Blue Harbor Partners was founded by Christy Hritz, a senior marketing leader with over 25 years of experience helping organizations bring clarity, structure, and momentum to their marketing.
Her work spans professional services, associations, and complex B2B environments where growth depends on relationships, alignment, and consistent execution—not just ideas.
Today, she partners directly with clients to help them move marketing forward in a way that is thoughtful, organized, and effective.
A Practical Approach to Marketing
Christy’s approach is grounded in a simple belief: marketing should be clear, aligned, and consistently executed.
Too often, organizations have strong ideas but lack structure, or they are executing without a clear plan. The result is fragmented efforts that don’t deliver the impact they should.
Her focus is on bringing the right people together, defining priorities, and building practical ways of working so marketing becomes more consistent, more coordinated, and more effective over time.
Experience That Translates Across Organizations
Christy’s background includes leading marketing strategy and execution within large, matrixed professional services environments, where success requires navigating multiple stakeholders, aligning priorities, and driving execution across teams.
She has supported growth initiatives across industries, developed targeted marketing programs, and led high-impact events and experiences designed to build relationships and drive business outcomes.
This experience allows her to step into new organizations quickly, understand how they operate, and bring structure without unnecessary complexity.
A High-Touch, Embedded PartnershipBlue Harbor Partners operates differently than a traditional agency.
Christy works directly with every client as an embedded partner—aligning with leadership, understanding priorities, and staying close to the work to ensure it moves forward.
There are no layers or handoffs. Just consistent partnership, clear communication, and accountability from start to finish.
A Bit More Personally
Christy is a Florida native who grew up in Jacksonville and earned a Bachelor of Business Administration in Marketing from the University of North Florida. She has called Fort Lauderdale home for more than 15 years, where the relationships she has built both personally and professionally continue to shape her work.
Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her husband, being near the water, and staying active in the local community. You can often find her dining out, helping keep the beaches clean, or walking her two doodles, Wally and Monty.
