About Me
Kelli Koch
Communications & design with purpose (and personality)
Hi! I’m Kelli, a Nashville-based communicator with a passion for storytelling and design. For more than 16 years, I’ve helped organizations turn complex information into engaging, audience-first content through storytelling, graphic design, and smart strategy.​ I’ve crafted community-building communications at Vanderbilt University Medical Center for the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and partnered with professional football players at the Pro Football Hall of Fame to promote events and digital campaigns. No matter the project, I love collaborating, problem-solving, and bringing ideas to life in creative, intentional ways. I am a content strategist, design enthusiast, and brand storyteller, but, most importantly, I am a proud dog mom with an unhealthy obsession with pop culture and boy bands, especially Hanson. Yes, Mmmbop Hanson from the 90s. A fun fact about me is I have seen them in concert more than 30 times and have traveled to seven different states for shows. I even had the opportunity to interview them before a show. I am full of amazing stories from meeting them throughout the years.
