hi, i’m kelli

I’m a graphic design and marketing professional living in Chicago, Illinois. Originally from the south suburbs of Chicago, early exposure to the arts and travel (and being a huge fan of Rory Gilmore on Gilmore Girls) inspired me to pursue a Bachelors of Arts in Journalism from Indiana University.

Post-undergrad included time as a Publication’s Assistant at the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry in Chicago before relocating to San Francisco for an opportunity to immerse myself in design. After broadening my skills and confidence in PR & Marketing at COUPAR, I left to pursue an opportunity as an in-house design and marketing manager at PlumpJack Group, a Northern California hospitality + lifestyle brand.

In 2021, my partner and I said our goodbyes to the west coast, returned to the midwest to put down roots a mile west of Wrigley Field (but go White Sox). Not long after, I launched my own creative business, with a focus in graphic design, branding, photography and web design.
