Kieley Taylor
Assistant Account Executive
Hired May 2006
Education:
- Graduated with Honors from the University of Colorado at Boulder with a B.S. in Advertising and a Minor in Business Administration.
Life before Risdall:
Prior to returning home and joining Risdall, Kieley worked at Wodel, Iltis, Sherman, Associates, an advertising and PR firm in Denver, CO. Along with her responsibilities for database entry, Kieley also attended screenings for film studios and looked for ways to generate word-of-mouth "buzz" for the new movies.
A natural-born troublemaker:
Kieley finds it a very normal thing to question the status quo and constantly looks for new ways to solve problems. And while such behavior may have been discouraged by shortsighted minds at school, at Risdall, challenging the status quo is the status quo.
Proudest moments:
Kieley cites graduating from college on the three-year plan, skiing the back bowls of Vail (which have more diamonds than Liz Taylor) and getting her driver's license on only her second try.
Favorite candy at Risdall:
Still conducting research
Off the clock:
When not on the job, Kieley enjoys skiing, going to concerts and, with a free airline pass in hand, traveling across the U.S.
Smile when you say that:
Not many people know it, but Kieley broke a front tooth playing high school basketball.
What's the big deal?
* New release movie trivia that Kieley created for local spot advertising throughout Denver and Salt Lake City was recognized by Focus Features and sent nationally for all their PR agencies to use.
* Additionally, a logo and pamphlet - among other pieces Kieley created for an honors project - are currently being used by Heartspun Massage.
* Finally, (although she's far too modest to tell you about it) Kieley enjoyed the spotlight, modeling independent designer couture on the fashion runways of Denver.
