nice to meet you!

I’m Kelly Higgins, a graphic designer specializing in branding design.

Art and design have been my lifelong passions, evolving from handprint butterflies in grade school to a love for studio art in high school. During my time at Illinois Wesleyan University, my creativity found a new outlet in the graphic design field, leading to a Bachelor of Arts degree with a focus on Graphic Design. In my professional journey, I've refined my skills within the corporate real estate sector, utilizing my graphic design expertise to assist brokers in enhancing their brand identity and crafting impactful brands for them. Drawing from my foundation in studio art and corporate experience, I bring a unique perspective to my freelance work. This blend of artistic passion and corporate proficiency allows me to approach projects with a dynamic and versatile mindset. Given my background in studio art, I often include hand-drawn elements and illustrations in my branding projects, adding a personal and unique touch.

Though I'm a Midwest girl at heart, I now call the North Carolina, Crystal Coast home, where I live with my husband and our chocolate lab, Walter. During my free time, I enjoy exploring various crafts and taking advantage of our beachside location. I’m inspired by interior design, flowers & nature and different decades. I find joy in expressing my style with fun patterns & colors and can occasionally be found rocking a denim on denim outfit.

If you have a project in mind or any questions, feel free to reach out. I'm excited about the opportunity to collaborate and create something wonderful together!
