“Kelsey is more than a diligent strategist relentlessly seeking consumer truths, trends and insights. She’s a creative at heart with a passion for hard working, disruptive, culture-impacting ideas. She’s in the trenches with her team from client-briefing to round 23 of feedback to building the case study. I saw this firsthand on a massive project for Barbie. With a mere three days to pitch and five weeks to execute, Kelsey was instrumental in winning the client, a constant champion for maintaining the integrity of the idea and a sounding board for executional considerations. She’s optimistic, funny and a natural-born leader who raises the bar for those around her. ”
