Kelsey graduated from Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism, with a double major in Art History. She maintains interests in archival studies, photography and photojournalism, and art historical research. Kelsey strives for a career centered on art librarianship and archives & collections management.
Kelsey started practicing photography in middle school, leading her to the uniquely competitive Texas high school photojournalism landscape and eventually to Medill, where she shot sports and event photography and delved into the documentary sphere. Upon falling in love with art history in college, she now strives to find as many ways as possible to combine her media and history passions. She is versed in both the practice and history of darkroom photography.
Her photography is published in the Daily Northwestern from her time as a sports photographer, as well as in the 2023 Best of Texas Scholastic Photography Book published by the Association of Texas Photography Instructors.
