Shift Disturber

Recognized for her visionary leadership at Prime Video, scaling its global footprint while maintaining local relevance and advancing new content and monetization strategies.

Kelly Day joined Amazon in January 2022 as VP, International for Prime Video, overseeing a team of regional and country managers, driving content and marketing strategies, greenlighting decisions, and business performance for Prime Video around the world.
