It's Nice to Meet You!
Originally from Alabama (roll tide, y'all!), I am now lucky to call the beautiful state of Colorado home, where there's no lack of big mountains to climb and brunches to be enjoyed! I love being outside and spend most of my weekends hiking, paddle boarding, snowboarding, or leaf peeping throughout the year with my dog, Colt.
A confident leader, I am always brainstorming new ways to showcase a brand while evaluating where efficiencies can be implemented. Skip right to my resume through the button below, or scroll down for more details on my professional skillset!
Professional Experience
After design internships ranging from local magazines to full ad agencies, I joined a fast-paced proposal support company called BID Designs where I helped grow the production team from just myself to overseeing team of three. Working with proposals gave me a whole new appreciation and eye for details, as well as ingraining expert-level time management into my being.
When I decided to venture out to Colorado, I continued my lead design position with Fast Enterprises, a software development company. Over time, I've grown the creative team and provided value at all levels of the company. "That's not my job" is nowhere in my vocabulary and I love seeing my designs enhancing the software the public uses to make their lives easier! It is important to me to always understand the goals of requests to ensure I am providing creative solutions, not just checking off tasks.

Things Coworkers Have Said About Me
Chelsea does more than anyone else realizes, and she does it very well. Her work ethic and what she creates are always top-notch. If we had a few more Chelsea's... oh man the things we could get done.
Chelsea is one of the hardest workers I know. She has gained 4 team members and leads them in such a kind, helpful way! Chelsea is always looking for areas that can be improved and goes above and beyond to ensure her team is producing the best possible graphics, newsletters, and videos.
While Chelsea is our Graphic Designer, so much more than that gets thrown onto her plate and she is always able to pull the meaning out of what is given to her and produce materials that drive the goals home. She plays a significant role in how our company is presented.
She is a master of juggling tasks that require a short turn around and is always willing to take a few minutes to clean up any visuals I need. Her time management is second to none!
