Hej/hi! I'm Kelly, a seasoned multi-disciplinary creative professional with expertise including (but not limited to) art direction and graphic design, branding, multi-platform campaigns, motion graphics, video production, illustration, print/digital publications and presentations.
I’m currently based in Vejle, Denmark with my 7-year-old son and husband (our reason for having moved abroad, as he landed a Product Designer position at LEGO), originally from the San Francisco Bay Area. In my recent working experience prior to the move, I spent a handful of years as Lead Designer at the in-house creative team of Northern California’s top public media organization (PBS/NPR affiliate) KQED, where I led a variety of campaign, branding, design, and video projects for diverse teams across the organization, hands-on in all stages of the creative process. Prior to that, I was a designer primarily on presentations and motion graphics for Duarte, known as the leader in the presentation space, where I collaborated on story and visuals for large-scale conferences like Apple’s WWDC and Salesforce Dreamforce.
I love working with my hands in some way even when not designing for work – be it making personal art, crafts, sewing, or playing music. I’m actively working toward Danish proficiency in sprogskole (currently at module 3.4), and independently studying Spanish. I also enjoy spending time outdoors (as Danish weather allows) and traveling to explore new places with my family.
I’m currently open for collaboration opportunities locally and remotely, so feel free to get in touch below or via LinkedIn.
