Hi, I’m Kaylee - a designer, artist, and visual storyteller.
As a multidisciplinary creative, I thrive on using art and design in various forms, to tell impactful stories.
Rooted in human connection and inspired by movement, my work as an artist interweaves experiences informed by my identity as a Jamaican, and my dance training.
Taking cues from my background as an artist, I leverage my skills and experience across brand and marketing design, illustration, and animation, to bring concepts and ideas to life, and craft intentional creative solutions and identity systems. I received my BFA in Studio Art from New York University.
When I'm not creating, you can find me dancing, glued to a good book, behind the camera, or watching the same five TV shows.
