Kelly

Copy Writing & Social Media

Kelly graduated with Honours from Queen's University with a degree in English and Psychology, quite a few years ago. Afterward, she spent three decades working in the snow sports industry at resorts across British Columbia before moving back to her home province of Ontario. Throughout those years, all of her jobs ended up having a focus on communication, branding, and content creation once her colleagues discovered her hidden talent. She does freelance editing, translating, proofreading, and copywriting for a European publisher and has since shifted more of her focus on writing because it’s always something she’s loved doing (and the snow sports in Ontario aren’t as good as the mountains in the west). She’s now extremely pleased to have joined the incredibly talented team at Namami.
