Renya Nelson

Renya Nelson is the founder and CEO of Brand Aid, a woman-owned branded merchandise agency that serves iconic brands like Goldman Sachs, Reddit, Nike, and CAA. A fearless entrepreneur and creative powerhouse, Renya built Brand Aid from the ground up with equal parts grit, style, and strategic savvy.

Renya is known for pushing past limits — not just her own, but those of her team, her clients, and the underdogs she roots for. With a deep belief in doing things the right way (even when it’s the hard way), she leads her company with heart, humor, and high expectations.

When she’s not building brands or fighting for what’s right, you can find her cracking jokes, blasting music, crafting case studies, or contemplating universal preschool.
