YEARS EXP
Hi! I’m Kelley Chambers, an Atlanta-area creative project manager with proven experience administering the creative project flow.
I think strategically, manage creatively and execute beautifully.
About Me
I’m a versatile, highly-organized and imaginative person who is proactive and fast learning, with solid experience working with creative teams including graphic designers, developers, web production, copy writers, SEO, production and marketing teams.
As the daughter of a videoographer and a paralegal, the visual and the verbal have always been intertwined. I’ve spent the last 20+ years crafting both in the private sector.
As high functioning left & right brained individual (smile!), I’m happiest when creatively contributing in an organized yet humor-filled environment.
Skillset
What makes me tick? Fortunately, lots of things!
Naturally gifted with equal parts left brained (analytical) and right brained (creative), this gene-based capability has proven to be an invaluable asset throughout my professional and personal life.
I am an obsessively organized, details wrangler whose vivid imagination sparks unrealized creativity within others. Plainly stated, I bloom wherever I’m planted.

My creative heart on display.
I am obsessed with color, space and typography which naturally bleeds into my development brain space. Below is just a handful of examples of what I am capable of. That said, if you find what you’re looking for, message me. I’ll either send you something directly to you or add it to my portfolio… or hell, maybe both! I like to live on the wild side. ;-D

Kelley worked on my staff while I was at Network Communications Inc. She is extremely creative and an outstanding designer. She honed her web development skills and played a valuable dual-role on many web projects.
I've since hired Kelley numerous times on additional projects and she is an accomplished web professional that has designed and built many websites. She is personable, professional and good with client interaction. I would recommend her for your next web related project!

I had the privilege of working with Kelley in an indirect capacity in which she utilized her design skills and technical savvy to develop and produce landing pages for social media platforms as part of a larger internet marketing strategy. Her designs were top notch and the pages worked like a dream.
