Summary

Kelsey's storytelling style relies heavily on her background in audio recording and design. As a writer, her work brings characters' internal thoughts to the physical spaces they inhabit and plays with surrealist aesthetics and themes. Years of working on set have provided the technical know-how to tackle such challenging visuals, and her love of the unknown pushes her constantly to make the impossible happen.
