Hello
Hi I'm Kelly
A kiwi born to an immigrant mother who journeyed to Aotearoa in search of a life distinct from her forebears. I have spent most of my life trying to understand the world around me. Growing up in an era of technology, I was granted firsthand access to boundless opportunities, from selecting WordArt in Microsoft Word during my primary school years to navigating the intricacies of Photoshop throughout high school.The world of pixels quickly became my playground. I want to create designs that are accessible, data driven and impactful for all.
​
Back in primary school, I had glue-sticky fingers from scrapbooking, while in high school, I was deciphering which cursor tool to use in Illustrator. Now, the current me is on a quest to understand how design can resonate with others from diverse perspectives.
