Chelsea came in to Here Comes The Guide like a dark horse: sweet, calm, unassuming, and full of surprises. We almost didn't see her coming, but feel so lucky to watch her emerge into a true powerhouse—full of skills and talents that delight us at every turn. One minute, she's writing venue editorial. The next minute, she's taking exceptional care of clients. And on her "off" days, she's running her own creative studio. Is there anything she can't do? Chelsea is someone you can bet on...even if you don't see her coming until she’s already winning!
Insider Info
Pronouns: she / her / hers
Favorite things: My Airedale pup (Isla), the ocean, oat milk vanilla lattes, pasta, staying up late, and charcuterie boards.
What I’m listening to: Audiobooks, so many podcasts, and of course LANY and Taylor Swift.
Guilty pleasures: I love reality TV. Although I do like shows with “more substance” too (my current favorites are The Handmaid’s Tale, Big Little Lies, and Yellowstone).
Favorite way to wind down after a hard day: The longest, hottest shower. I’m a firm believer that a good shower can fix anything.
Dream travel destination: Italy and Greece have always been at the very top of my wish list.
Workspace decor: Lack of color, cups of coffee, and lots of Post-its.
Film that I never get sick of watching: The Wizard of Oz. This one’s my favorite movie from childhood and it’s now my comfort film.
Favorite quote: “Be the child you were.” —Jan Spiller
What I love about my job: There truly isn’t a part of it that I would change. The amazing people, flexibility, uplifting community…I love it all!
