Testimonials

From the people I've worked with.

"
I can't say enough about how helpful Kielan has been with my social media postings and presentations for retail stores. Kielan created beautiful brochures and catalogs for my artwork. Her polished presentations for retail outlets and projects were top notch. She was very skilled in Canva, always available when I needed her, and her work generated many opportunities for me. Kielan is a true professional and working with her was not only a pleasure but resulted in a significant increase in sales.
Kathleen Palmeri, KPalm Fine Art
"
If you're looking for someone to run your social media with strategy, consistency, and actual personality (not the cookie-cutter stuff), I can't recommend Kielan enough. She's been the best social media partner I've had, smart, reliable, and able to capture voice in a way that feels human, not canned.
Kelley Troia, Clandestine Events + Experiences
"
Kielan interned for my brand, Drip Accessory, during her senior year of college and continued working with me for a couple of months after graduation. From the start, she showed initiative and impressed me with her professionalism and creativity. She produced high-quality photo assets of my products that I continue to use today. Kielan also organized and executed photoshoots, keeping everything clear and accessible in well-organized folders. She was instrumental in setting up my TikTok shop, taking on tasks with enthusiasm and efficiency. Beyond her skills, Kielan is a true go-getter with a great personality. She would be an asset to any team, and I recommend her wholeheartedly.
Courtney Helm, Founder, Drip Accessory
"
Kiel has been a huge factor in bringing my marketing vision to life. She brings her own ideas as well as builds off of mine. Her work has built off of my existing branding and not only fits seamlessly, but has helped me enhance it. Without Kiel, we would probably still be talking about a reel we were supposed to post last season; now, we can bring content and concepts to our audience within days.
Julie T, PSP Design Co.

Kielan proved to be an invaluable asset to our team, contributing meaningfully across numerous projects and consistently exceeding expectations. She approaches every task with thoughtfulness, creativity, and a strong work ethic.
