I have been involved in the technology sector since 2010, when I took my first foray into telecoms through Rainbow communications. I quickly worked my way into data solutions as well as on premise and hosted communication platforms, and later network security and data centre sales.

Earlier this year I made the move into Business intelligence and workflow automation platforms at izon, a brave new world but a fairly natural progression.

In my spare time I love reading (non fiction mainly) and have been a (very part time) working musician for over 20 years, with several tours and festivals under my belt, so after my talk please do come and say hi, there is always a good story.

Kelsey Jordan

Kelsey Jordan

As an experienced architectural, interior, and graphic designer in St. Louis, Kelsey Jordan’s visions for the future of architecture strongly involve embedded ideologies on designing for equity in education and diversity in the built environment. Through research and practice she has been able to understand how health and wellness can be implemented to effect positive change within communities that face multifaceted issues like obesity, food deserts, poverty, educational attainment, and systemic racism in educational environments. Her first pragmatic approach to wellness in education was due to the dynamics between poverty, food deserts, obesity, and poor graduation rates plaguing Mississippi - the worst of any state at the time. Through interdisciplinary research, she designed a curriculum and educational facility in Mississippi which incorporated agriculture curriculum, which yielded enough produce to combat food scarcity for these students and their families, along with passive, evidence-based design strategies associated with higher graduation rates and mentally and physically healthier lifestyles. Due to the educational facility’s design excellence, the community can confront multifaceted issues through design. Currently as an architectural designer, Jordan utilizes her passion for design equity to create stimulating future-focused learning environments. She seeks to continuously advocate for design in terms of wellness, equity, diversity & inclusion, and finds joy in situations where she can participate as an advocate for clients and community. Serving as chair for and on various organizations, she works directly with underrepresented students to teach life skills through architecture to help drive future equality and stability. Recently she has been featured on Beyond the Built Environment as a diverse designer representing diverse designers in Missouri.
