“I feel my inner child is liberated.”

My name is Shady Kimzey.
I want to make your life more creative & fulfilling.
I am a teaching and facilitation expert. In the last year, I have worked with over 350 students in creative classes and events.
I consider myself a high-achieving rebel which has led me to a successful career as a creative despite not having formal art training,
I am a creative solo-preneur. Creative services are my full-time job, and I work with a network of top-tier local creatives.
