ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Kendall. I’m a photographer and visual designer with a background in Digital Design and Sport Management. With 15+ years of experience as an athlete, I’m interested in how visual storytelling can bring people closer to the sports, brands, and communities they care about.

​

My Fine Art and Digital Design education has shaped how I approach creative work, from developing concepts and communicating ideas visually to understanding how imagery, composition, and design shape how a message is received. Combined with my Sport Management background and experience as a college athlete, I bring both a creative perspective and an understanding of the sports industry.

​

Throughout my internships and early work experiences, I’ve created photography and graphics for college athletics, developed social media content and marketing materials for a design business, and contributed to marketing projects including storyboarding and ad copy for a minor league sports team. Most recently, I have collaborated with a marketing agency to produce content for social media and marketing purposes. This broad range of experiences has allowed me to explore different sides of creative communication, from producing visual content to developing advertising copy and supporting brand storytelling.

​

I’m now pursuing my MA in Visual Communication at the University of Portsmouth, continuing to develop my creative practice and currently exploring part-time opportunities across creative marketing, social media, and brand storytelling.
