I’m Renée McKellar, a graphic designer, educator, and founder of Peace & Balance LLC. I currently teach at College of the Canyons and freelance on the ancestral lands of the Chumash and Fernandeño Tataviam peoples, known today as Los Angeles.
With a foundation in game art and over a decade of experience in brand strategy and design, I specialize in crafting immersive, culturally resonant visual identities. My work is rooted in intentionality, blending bold aesthetics with strategic storytelling to create campaigns that not only engage but empower. Whether I’m designing for entrepreneurs, nonprofits, or institutions, I ensure each project reflects the heart of the community it serves.
