I believe we are the sum of all our chapters and contributions.
A reformed single-tasker, wannabe minimalist, and digital humanities advocate, my life is full of learning new perspectives, exploring (paper) trails, and creative living. Curiosity shapes my routine: A digital marketer in the morning, archivist in the afternoon, and library and information science master’s student by night, I’m probably 80% caffeine right now. Flip through my interactive portfolio full of marketing and editing gigs.
I dig diving into analytics, arts, and accessibility and believe in measuring both impact and investment. As a multi-passionate person, that means showing up for my people and myself and so I make routines for running, meditating, art-making, and reading. Get to know me further by reading my values. I’m creative, collaborative, and curious.
A self-proclaimed word nerd, I have opinions about the oxford comma and love a good list, often documenting self-discoveries via blog. I’m leaning into data visualizations as new ways to reveal trends about myself, too. Logs, spreadsheets, and charts show successes and struggles while making space for reflection, remixes, and routines.
After all this time, I’m a writer. My main medium is words, so 2024 marks the 5th year I’m publishing posts about habits! My “2024 goals” one-sheet focuses on sustainable systems. This year, you’ll find new blog posts on the 10th, 20th, and 30th of every month. Follow along for meditations on my goals, thoughts on my word for the year, experiment, and read research for my forthcoming book, Omit to Commit.
Multi-passionate living is authentic, vulnerable, and best expressed, and so I strive to make this website a safe space to be and feel it all.
My marketing, archiving, and editing projects have composed an engaging, fulfilling career that spans industries and countries, USA, Jamaica, Belize, and Nigeria. Life’s full and fun, whether I’m playing with a pup, watching through film credits, or exploring research rabbit holes.
As I transition from marketing to information science, I am currently focused on archives and special collections. That looks like learning multiple metadata languages for accessibility of materials. I aim to develop system approaches in memory preservation with a big dream of ending dementia. If you want to caffeinate me and support my work, add to the virtual tip jar. Thank you!
My goal is to make this website accessible for everyone. Whether you identify as a multi-passionate creative and have not met me (yet) or we’re pals or colleagues, please know you are appreciated. You matter! Want to collaborate? I am a freelance editor and archivist, currently focused on resume redesigns. Strategizing via (virtual) coffee talk is my jam. Together, we can make the world more thoughtful, inclusive, creative, and fun!

Hello, Kaylie!
I can see you’ve put a lot of effort into this site… You have a great use of all sorts of lists. Your use of language and lingo pair very nicely. I see your quick bio is at the top and your call to action is at the bottom of the page, above this comment box… I like the flow of the page as well… If I had to make one critique just by looking at this home page, I would ask, where is your main focal point? The title picture? The lists? Your biography? Your call to action? The other pictures? The comments? The footer? My point is to make it known in some fancy way.
Over all, excellent job!
Hi David! Thank you so much for this thoughtful comment on my homepage. I have taken your feedback on a focal point and have now added a couple subject headings to give some direction. You’re right, I currently have many focal points, both here on this website and in my day-to-day LIS student/marketer routines. If you have ideas to simplify, feel free to share! Also, I appreciate your kind words about the new quick bio (those are a fun challenge!), my lists/language/lingo, and the new visual calls to action. Thanks for reading and engaging with my website!
