Born in Surabaya, Indonesia / studying in Vancouver, Canada

​

Hi! My name is Kelly Hady and I’m a second-year Communications student with an interest in Interactive Arts and Technology in Simon Fraser University, Canada. I grew up in Indonesia and was raised quite traditionally in all aspects. Despite this, I've taught myself- and let others teach me- to be open to a vast array of cultures, peoples, perspectives, and interests. I appreciate all sorts of aesthetic and design styles, but I'm particularly drawn to minimalism, vintage/retro elements, and experimenting with various colour palettes across my works. 

​

Design takes up a huge chunk of my life, but so does playing piano, watching a crazy amount of tv shows, and always looking out for inspiration to make more meaningful and creative work. As is, I like to think a designer is multifaceted, mindful, and efficient without diverging from their own personal style and beliefs.

I am also a student volunteer for Catholic Christian Outreach at SFU. I create and manage all Instagram content for @ccosfu. You can preview this Instagram on the Graphic Design & Illustration page.
