Stafford Wood has lived in Boston, Baton Rouge, Austin and, since August 2024, Santa Fe. Apparently, she has a penchant for capital cities. After receiving lifetime Achievement Awards from the Advertising Federation, Public Relations Association of Louisiana, teaching PR at LSU, she started a Masters of Arts in Liberal Arts from St. John’s College and fell in love with Santa Fe’s people. With 20 years as the owner of Covalent Logic, a corporate communications and public relations agency and community building work in Baton Rouge through Family Road of Greater Baton Rouge, WRKF-Public Radio, and public school service, she seeks to bring the (potentially oxymoronic) philosophical pragmatism to creating an even more awesome Creative Santa Fe by joining the Advisory Council and the Catalyst Committee to support the core Team. Overly passionate and overtly practical, Stafford loves to create order out of chaos and stir things up when they become too “wash, rinse, repeat.”
