With 10 years of professional experience, Kelly is an expert when it comes to translating ideas into branding, illustrations, promotional materials and advertising campaigns. Drawing and design has been a way she has communicated with and interacted with the world ever since her parents hung her first drawing on the fridge. Good design solves problems and makes us more effective communicators, something Kelly knows all too well.
