Kelsey Powell

Senior Designer

B.F.A. Interior Design, Michigan State University

Designing since 2014 | Joined KSI 2021

Kelsey graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Interior Design from Michigan State University and focused on commercial office design for the first two years of her professional design career. Kelsey moved on to pursue her career as a Kitchen and Bath Designer, which is where her passion lies. Kelsey continues her education through regular training opportunities with local and national industry associations.  She is an active member in many organizations, including NKBA, HBA of Southeastern Michigan, and NAHB Professional Women in Business. 

“My design process focuses heavily on collaboration with clients, as well as other design professionals such as architects, engineers, contractors, sub-contractors, and other interior designers. I find the most rewarding part of my job is watching the transformation of a space, or the development of a new space, and seeing how it refines the quality of life for those who work, play, and live in it.”

When she’s not working, you’ll most likely be able to find Kelsey at the yoga studio (or Orange Theory), brunching with friends, or playing at home with my family. “I am a Certified Yoga Instructor, which is my second passion. I believe the skills learned from the yoga practice – physically, mentally, and intellectually – not only benefit my personal life, but my professional life as well.”
