Hello,

My name is Michelle Kiley. I am dedicated to supporting local leaders interested in investing in design. I hold degrees in both Urban and Local Affairs; and Tourism, Planning, and Development. The body of my work focuses on design through the lens of the overall visitor and resident’s experience.

Areas of Focus 

Design assessment specific to:

1. Educational programming and interpretation of a specific resource(s).
2. Space planning within a particular building or designated community space.
3. Creative placemaking through arts-based community development (ABCD).

My work emphasizes responsible planning and community development best practices. In addition, it recognizes the symbiotic relationships and encourages out-of-the-box approaches that entice people to playfully engage in their surroundings.  Feel free to contact me to talk about your design ideas and goals for success.

Until then,

Michelle
