Hello, my name is Carissa Kelley.
I enjoy the simple things in life, spend my free time lettering, traveling (when it is safe!), and observing. Much of my inspiration comes from nature and little moments in time, although my interests are vast.
My journey in Graphic Design began young, making advertisements for the crafts I sold my family. From there, I took an interest in lettering. Years later, I took a position with the Rocky Mountain District Key Club District Board as their Bulletin Editor, where I designed all of the program logos, event graphics, publications, etc. I am now loving the privilege to design everyday and the community I have been able to connect with.
