Why Joyride Was Built Differently—and What Sets It Apart

When communications strategist and mobility veteran Katelyn Davis founded Joyride in 2023, she wasn’t launching another general-purpose agency—she built a boutique firm rooted in her deep-domain expertise across automotive, transportation, and mobility tech. As featured in Founded by Women, Katelyn recognized that early-stage mobility companies didn’t just need PR—they needed storytellers who understood autonomy, electrification, supply-chain dynamics and investor expectations. The piece explores how Joyride blends industry fluency with authentic narrative work, and how Katelyn’s commitment to diversity, alignment, and impact (rather than speed or scale alone) drives the agency’s purpose-led approach.
