Our Leadership Team

Former big-agency people Team with excellent credentials, we’ve learned how to work smarter along the way.

Courtney Khimji

Founder & CEO

Throughout her 15+ year PR career, Courtney has seen it all. Her agile approach and bold mindset have led her to lead award-winning projects across all sectors of the communications landscape, including earned media, content marketing and experiential production. A writer at heart, Courtney holds an M.A. in the Humanities from the University of Chicago. She’s a mom, an equestrian, and a die-hard morning person.

Fraser Ballard

Director Of Client Services

With 10 years of client leadership experience, Fraser brings his proactivity, finesse and creative flair to every project that he touches. A true multihyphenate, he has led 360° PR, social and editorial programs for blue-chip global brands in the travel, apparel and luxury sectors. A design lover and occasional editor, the Montreal-native can usually be found in the air or in the chip aisle at your local dépanneur.

Sydney Torgov

Director Of Public Relations

As Chimera’s first hire in 2017, Sydney has been running the show since day one and has grown into a media relations master along the way (ask anyone—her thoughtfulness and diligence are unrivaled). Her credentials include leading fashion, hospitality, beauty and tech brands. She side-hustles as a Pilates instructor and has mastered the art of continent-hopping in search of her next remote-work destination.

Our extended staff of full-time consultants bring exceptional rigour, creativity and connections to our collective. We are a certified Diversity Supplier via WEConnect International.
